banging my head against a wall...and prolly overlooking the something really easy/ stupid but
building a vertical spry menu bar. looks great in Chrome and firefox but IE is being problematic (i know...your shocked).
the sub menus in Firefox and Chrome are positioning where i need them to (to the left of the nav bar and raised up so they fit on the screen without scrolling) but in IE they do show up on the left like i want them to but they are not raising up...they just come off the left side and drop down. i will post the spry css. if you need more let me know. Thanks yall!
