You posted this in the v3 section as well. Now we have no idea what version of the software you're using. Please - post only to one area.

Now, if you're really running v5 of the software, a URL and better explanation of the problem is required.

Here is the link.
http://203.123.36.146:8081/livex

The problem is whenever you come to the site by clicking this link then the first time menu comes wider and shows a horizental scroller on the page.But when you prees F5 after that it comes to its normal shape.

This is only happening on IE 7.0 .

Please help me out sort this issue.

Right off the top you've got some serious html problems - 2 <html>, 2 <head>, 2 <body>, doctype out of place, etc. Here's what I'm seeing in the source...

Code:

<html>
  <head>
    <base href="http://203.123.36.146:8081/livex/">
    <link href="/livex/css/main.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet">
        <title> Liv-ex: The Fine Wine Exchange</title>
    </head>
    <link href="css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

    <link href="css/menu.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    <script language="JavaScript" src="javascript/script.js"></script>
   

     
  <body bgcolor="#ffffff"  >
        <table cellspacing="0" width="100%" cellpadding="0" border="0">
      <tr>
                <td valign="top">
          <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>

<title>Liv-ex</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<meta name="keywords" content="">
<meta name="description" content="">
<link href="css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<link href="menu.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
<script language="JavaScript" src="js/script.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript">

etc. Obviously this needs to be fixed.

Also, you are not calling the menu properly when placed in a <td>. See this page for the correct setup.
