Menu item as link & open submenu: IE and Mozilla Discrep

Hello,
I am trying to have to have a menu item that opens a submenu on mouseover also serve as a link on click. I checked the little answer in the FAQ, and that's not the problem. In fact in Mozilla, it works perfectly. However in IE (version 6), it doesn't work, and comes up as 'Error on Page.' Why? Your help is appreciated!

Invisible code makes it a bit tough to trouble shoot and answer your question.
Please post a URL.

overflow="scroll";
aI("image=images/btn1.gif;overimage=images/btn1a.gif;url=company.html;status=company;showmenu=Company;");
aI("image=images/btn2.gif;overimage=images/btn2a.gif;url=management_team.html;status=management_team;showmenu=Management;");
aI("image=images/btn3.gif;overimage=images/btn3a.gif;url=products.html;status=products");
aI("image=images/btn4.gif;overimage=images/btn4a.gif;url=technology.html;status=technology;");
aI("image=images/btn5.gif;overimage=images/btn5a.gif;url=news_&_press.html;status=news_&_press;");
aI("image=images/btn6.gif;overimage=images/btn6a.gif;url=careers.html;showmenu=Careers;status=careers;");
aI("image=images/btn7.gif;overimage=images/btn7a.gif;url=contact.html;status=contact;");
}
style=menuStyle;
top=190;
left=0;
alwaysvisible=1;
overflow="scroll";
aI("image=images/btn1.gif;overimage=images/btn1a.gif;url=company.html;status=company;showmenu=Company;");
aI("image=images/btn2.gif;overimage=images/btn2a.gif;url=management_team.html;status=management_team;showmenu=Management;");
aI("image=images/btn3.gif;overimage=images/btn3a.gif;url=products.html;status=products");
aI("image=images/btn4.gif;overimage=images/btn4a.gif;url=technology.html;status=technology;");
aI("image=images/btn5.gif;overimage=images/btn5a.gif;url=news_&_press.html;status=news_&_press;");
aI("image=images/btn6.gif;overimage=images/btn6a.gif;url=careers.html;showmenu=Careers;status=careers;");
aI("image=images/btn7.gif;overimage=images/btn7a.gif;url=contact.html;status=contact;");
}
I think the problem could only be there, unless it's a design issue. The real curiosity is why there is NO problem in Mozilla, but there is one in Explorer 6.
I'm thinking you may need a TEXT parameter in each aI, and since I'm using images, I can just set the fontsize to '0.' Adding <text=blah;> makes the link work, but turns my pointer from a link-hand to an arrow instead. Not good - I want a hand! I also throws off the alignment (not a big deal).
Other than this, I've been very pleased with Milonic, and just bought a license for this domain.
Thanks again,
Noah
