more IE vs 'the world' positioning issues

Trying to build a simple menu that needs to be positioned precisely. (Don't they all ;)

See: http://www.asburypark.com/test1

The background graphic has an area on it where the menu is supposed to be positioned. See the actual background graphic here: http://www.asburypark.com/test1/Picture2.png

In Safari and Firefox, the milonic menu is positioned correctly. (I've temporarily colored the menu red so you can see it). But in Explorer on PC and Mac the menu sits a couple of points too high.

Any thoughts on what positioning magic I'm missing? (I'd like to avoid TABLES if at all possible.)

Hi,

It's a margin problem. All the browsers seem to have a different default margin so if you don't specify one they use the default and it gives you different positions. If you specify the margin in your css styles that should take care of it. I always use margin:0px, but any specified margin should work.
