 * Hi, I’m trying to include a javascript menu bar that I made on my wordpress blog
   and I can’t seem to get it to work. I put the following line of code `<?php include('
   menu.php'); ?>` into my header.php file, but when I go to look at my site it 
   just shows up as a white block. The links on the block still work, but it doesn’t
   show up. My site is located at [http://www.kerform.com/blog](http://www.kerform.com/blog)
   Any ideas? Thanks.

 * It looks like it’s the stylesheet. How can a create a separate style sheet that
   by menu.php uses?

 * the path to the images is wrong. In your CSS for `#tab a` you have:
 * `background:transparent url(images/bright_110.gif) no-repeat scroll right top;`
 * it needs to be:
 * `background:transparent url(/images/bright_110.gif) no-repeat scroll right top;`
 * notice the addition of a “/” before “images”
