Question about menu positioning options...

We have affiliates who can visit our site, obtain a cookie, then see a bar with their site information on the top each time they visit our site. See these links for examples.

actual homepage:
http://www.icruise.com

affiliate homepage:
http://www.icruise.com/Partner.htm?Affiliate=FreeTravel

As you can see, when the affiliate page comes up, the menus stay absolutely positioned at 25px top and 178 px left. Is there anyway around this absolute positioning, so the menu can appear in the proper location for all users?

Thanks in advance,

Geoff

First off, you've got a lot of duplicated code in there - html, head, meta, body tags, and I don't know what all else.

All of the menu code calls should NOT be in the td - just the _data file. Move the other calls up to the first items after the body tag (after you figure out which one is the real body tag!). Use relative positioning for your menu.

See this for help.

Thanks for the assistance. The link helped me fix my problem. Don't ask about the code. It's a long story. Imagine having to work with it.

It's amusing really. We have our affiliates send us code to implement into ours. You've now seen a taste of the code they give us.
