 * Hi all,
 * I am trying to make the dropdown of each option on the top menu the same width
   as the text that appears when you hover over it to make it look neat.
 * Also, I would like to keep the background colour of the text that is hovered 
   over the same while the user is in the dropdown menu below it.
 * Thanks in advance,
 * Andy.

 * Try using Firefox with the Firebug add-on for this kind of CSS work.

 * Sorry, I do not know what you mean. Also, I live in the UK where 45% people using
   IE (I know, 45% of our population are crazy).
 * There must be some code I can add to the style page that treats this issue?

 * As do I. The browser that other people use has nothing to do with anything. Firebug
   is a tool that will make your job a lot easier.

 * I’m afraid this has only confused me even more. I was asking if someone knows
   the code for my queries – I don’t have the code already and need to see why it
   isn’t working.
