not aligning with negative margin in certain browsers

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Jan 30.2005

I just started working on a layout for my new site and i have ran into a problem. The menu wasn’t aligning with the content so i gave it a negative margin and it aligned perfectly, but when i checked it in firefox the box was all the way to the left. When i get rid of my negative margin it works in firefox, but not in internet explorer. Can someone please help me i can’t figure out how to get it to work in both browsers.

P.S. — What do you think of the design so far?

@ray326Jan 30.2005 — Should the menu be inside the box with the login form?

@ray326Jan 30.2005 — Well I'd start by removing the following two lines from the #menu.

position: absolute;

margin-left: -175px;

Make it right in FF then tweak it for IE.

@BlackDragon1012authorJan 30.2005 — i always knew how to get it to work in ff the problem is i cant get both to work. Thats what i need help with.

(I got rid of those lines and now it is working in FF and not in IE)

(Are the lines surrounding the links annoying? They looked good when i drew it out on paper, but now it looks bad)

I know this isnt the forum, but if anyone can tell me what they think about the | | surrounding the links that would be helpful
