I have a site I am developing that uses CSS drop down menus. I cannot
figure out why they don't work in only one hosting service and then
don't work only in IE on that service. They work fine in IE in my
local host and on my testing host.

The URL for the site I would like to use is:
http://www.coophousing.com/costcutters/index.asp

The drop downs work fine on this host in Firefox and Opera but not in
IE6

They do work in IE6 on my local host and my testing server
http://www.brianeng.ca/projects/chft_new/costcutters/index.asp

Does anybody know what the issue might be?

Thanks
Brian

Drop downs work at both sites with IE7

This is not a css issue.

Toggle javascript on and off. The navigation, javascript dependent,
fails to provide for javascript disabled browsers.

The coophousing.com page displayed the drop downs on first downloading
but toggling javascript, off and then on, failed to restore.

I am pretty sure it is not a CSS issue but I don'think it is a
javascript issue either. The drop downs work in when the page is
served from my testing server (brianeng.ca) with exactly the same IE6
browser settings as the coophousing.com server.

I have tried talking to my server support, but they give me the
standard line that they "don't provide support for coding issues" I
don't understand how it can be different from hosting service to
hosting service. The coophousing.com site is hosted with bellhosting
and my testing server is hosted with ISQsolutions.

I am at a loss to understand this. If anyone knows of any other forums
that might be of help. I would greatly appreciate it.

It's a bit ironic that the 'Accessiblity' link isn't accessible via
keyboard, even with JavaScript enabled. :-\
