It now looks better on my systems on IE7, IE8, FF, and Safari but there is still a small overflow by the menu at the bottom on all of them. I think I have come up with a reasonably simple and reliable solution to the problem.

First replace:

Code:

<div class="menunav">

with

Code:

<div class="menunav" id="menunav_id">

and then a bit further down the page replace

Code:

<script type="text/javascript"> 
<!--
var MenuBar2 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar2", {imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});
//-->
</script>

with

Code:

<script type=text/javascript>
<!--
if (! menunav_retry) { // test for safari happiness
	document.getElementById('menunav_id').style.height =
		(document.getElementById('menunav1').clientHeight +5) + 'px';
	menunav_retry = 1;
}
var MenuBar2 = new Spry.Widget.MenuBar("MenuBar2", {imgRight:"SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif"});
//-->
</script>

This seemed to work nicely for me on all browsers mentioned above except IE7 which I didn't have a chance to test.

If this works for you, you can also remove the height specification from the .menunav css rule.

HTH,
