 * Hi, Wondering if anyone can advise me. My menu keeps jumping when its clicked.
   I cant figure out why, its driving me nuts. I’ve tried adjusting padding and 
   margins. It was centered I’ve left aligned it. Any advise would be much appreciated.
   
   thanks in advance It’s: [http://emma.silverliningwebdesign.com/](http://emma.silverliningwebdesign.com/)

 * Hi, Pretty site!
    Wow, that gets complex, so very hard to say exactly. I have
   it working great in FF, but IE does jump slightly, indeed.
 * Here’s what I did see… see these goodies? They’re very specific, and when you
   hover over the link, they seem to be mostly overridden. (I can see this in Firebug).
 *     ```
       .art-menu a {
       cursor:pointer;
       display:block;
       height:23px;
       overflow:hidden;
       position:relative;
       text-decoration:none;
       }
       ```
   
 * This changing of styling during hover may produce the “jump”. So I would suggest
   that you compare this styling with related styles that use “hover”. Possibly 
   it’s the letter-spacing, possible text-align, who knows. I told you it was complex.
   😉
 * Apart from that, one possible idea would be to make the links float:left. That
   said, this could introduce new complications.
 * Oh, and I would take a peek at the typo on the Wedding Fairs page… not easily
   corrected, as it’s an image.
 * Hope that gives you some usable ideas!
    Cheers, Dave

 * hi Dave,
    sorry about late reply. Only figureing this out now. thanks for your
   ideas. I’ve gone with left aliging as opposed to centering the menu – helps a
   bit. thanks for the typo tip and your time!! thanks, Caths
