I just checked and whatever feature you are using for the navbar is broken
in both IE6 and in N4.7 so I don't really understand why you insist on using
something that is known to cause problems in both browsers. There are literally
millions of web pages on the internet that do not display these problems,
are perfectly functional using somewhat older computer technology, and do not
compromise site functionality or style. Style sheets may sound like a good
idea on the surface but everyone who attempts to use them run into problems
with the people they are trying to please the most and those are the visitors
to that site. If you want to cop some sort of elitist attitude that is
fine with me but I refuse to upgrade my browser just so it is compatible
with your broken site.
