asked on

div positions, looks ok in dreamweaver but not one div moves in a browser...

Hi,

I am making a webpage and have used a menu from css play... i  have got it to fit in the right position on my dreamweaver page but when i preview it in a browser the 'header' div moves down and the 'wrap' div which contains the header and menu seems to be hidden?

heres the test page:    http://www.nugrafik.com/index_s3.html

please see the image below for how it looks in my dreamweaver page.

the menu position is relative and i tried changing all my other divs to relative but that didnt make a difference..

everything was fine before i added the menu.

can anybody help?

thank you, kira


here is my html for the page and the external css is below.

Try throwing this into the header:

<span style="visibility:hidden">&nbsp;</span>


Wrap and header are adjusting to the margin of menu.
