[Webpro] RE: CSS Quirk or Newbie Coder?

Jeanne, try putting all of the code in the <div id="topnav"....  into
one line.  I think it's picking up whitespace in the code.  I tried it
locally and it worked fine like that.

Thanks, Jason, but the problem persists. :-/ 

I went to Strict 1.0 as well and cleaned up all the code with a
validator
(the only thing I'm missing are my alt tags which I'll later). Got rid
of
some font tags, too (so I need to reformat some text with css yet).

Any other ideas? Here's the files & it's that gap in the eagle I'm
trying to
get rid of IE6:
