i found this menu that's exactly what i want. It works in all modern browsers and IE 7/8. I need to find a fix for it to work in IE6. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The problem with this menu in IE6 is that it's using selectors like this:
header ul#menu li:hover ul
IE6 only supports :hover
on a
elements.
Fortunately, there's a really easy fix to make this menu work in IE6.
It's called Whatever:hover
csshover3.htc
file.Add this CSS:
body {
behavior: url("csshover3.htc");
}
Here's a self-contained file that I tested to work with IE6, provided that the csshover3.htc
file is in the same folder:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Simple Tabbed Navigation - CSS3</title>
<!--[if lt IE 9]><script src="http://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script><![endif]-->
