CSS styling issues in IE7 & IE8

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone can help me out with some CSS styling issues in IE on the following website:

www.peakperformanceuk.com

I have created a website which appears absolutely fine in Chrome, but once viewed in IE7 and IE8 the header all falls to pieces and there is a padding issue in the navigation bar :-/

Hope someone can help me out

Thanks

Tried in IE8 - seems fine - what specifically is not working?
It seems you have a case of not clearing your floats.
First add clear:both to the #access element in your CSS.  

Let's see where that puts us

The problems i am having i have listed below:

1) floating issues in IE7
2) nav links are positioned incorrectly in IE7
3)I think i have a zindex issue with the slideshow on the home page as my drop menu (submenu) under "bike, run, swim" is hidden in IE7

I have so far added clear:both; to the #access element, doesn't seem to have affected it?

Hope you can help

Thanks
I'm working on it right now. You have a lot of floats and no clears. IE has what's known as a float "bug", where you have to properly clear your floats otherwise you get the exact problems your getting now.
Try this for your style.css and let us know. I checked it in IE 7 and it worked fine. But just to make sure I want you to check it too.

Hi! Put a width in your #search then remove the clear:both in #access as shown below.

#search {
    float: right;
    margin: 18px 24px 16px 0;
    width:200px;
}

#access {
    display: block;
    float: left;
    font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;
    height: 29px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    width: 960px;
}
The problem is that you do not specify the width in your #search by default(IE7) it takes the width of its container.

To solve the problem. Put a width in your #search then remove the clear:both in #access as shown below.

#search {
    float: right;
    margin: 18px 24px 16px 0;
    width:200px;
}

#access {
    display: block;
    float: left;
    font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;
    height: 29px;
    margin: 0 auto;
    width: 960px;
}

Cheers!

Jehova is Great!
Thank you, that seems to have taken care of number one, im terrible with forgetting to clear floats :(

Just need to sort out problems 2 & 3? any ideas?

You can try adding the following to
#header {
...
position: relative;
}
#access {
...
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
}
... and remove the float: left from #access
ok - not sure if i have done it the best way or not, but i have enclosed the floated elements in a header container with a fixed height, because i thought that IE was displaying the search at different sizes therefore pulling the nav up. anyway, it works :)

Thank you for your suggestion though. I just have the z-index to sort out on the drop down menu, i take it im giving the #access a z-index of say 99999 and the #aio-slideshow element a z-index of "0"??
