 * Hello! I’m using the e-wallet theme for my website and am having some trouble
   with the top menu bar:
 * [http://www.instantpresscomics.com/](http://www.instantpresscomics.com/)
 * Viewing the site in Firfox there is no problem. But when viewed in IE the menu
   bar goes down below the menu buttons and the search bar.
 * I have tried the “clear” command on just about every part of the Style Sheet 
   from #header to #top to #searchbar. If anyone has the tool to view the CSS and
   direct me on what should be changed to fix this that would be a big help. I’ve
   tried just about every trick I know and can’t seem to get it to work.

 * Hi
 * The gist of it is your background header is assigned to the wrong DIV. Firefox
   is dealing with it, but IE7 is not.
 * Make a copy of your stylesheet before making these changes. The correct way to
   do this is to use a separate stylesheet for IE tweaks. If you know how to do 
   that, go ahead. If not, for now just use your main stylesheet – just comment 
   out the lines I am telling you to remove or change, so you can still have the
   original code if needed.
 * In your stylesheet style.css (line 380) find
 *     ```
       #header {
       background:url(images/header.jpg) repeat 0 0;
       font-family:Verdana;
       font-size:26px;
       font-weight:bold;
       height:278px;
       margin:0 auto;
       padding:0;
       text-decoration:none;
       width:1024px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Take the “background” line out of #header altogether
 * Now find #rap style.css (line 1001)
 *     ```
       #rap {
       background:#FFFFFF;
       border-left:1px solid #040404;
       border-right:1px solid #040404;
       margin:0 auto;
       text-align:left;
       width:1024px;
       }
       ```
   
 * Change the background line to
    `background:#FFFFFF url(images/header.jpg) no-
   repeat 0 0;`
 * That should put the menu bar on the line where you want it. It should still be
   OK in Firefox, but you will need to adjust a few things in IE – there are two
 *  that are dropping things down too far in IE.
 * This should get you started

 * I have the same theme installed on [http://www.theamericastop.com](http://www.theamericastop.com),
   works great in Firefox, not so good in IE. It looks like my entire center divider
   that had the categories listed out is missing in IE and the white back ground
   behind the right sidebars is missing. If you could take a look at it and give
   me a suggestion as to what to do, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in 
   advance.
