Topic: Navigation list rollover descriptions.

I use a handy little bit of CSS on my own website that shows a short description of the offending page on hover. Go ahead and try it. It's fun! I have two problems though. One is that it won't work in any version or flavor of IE that I've ever seen. The other is that I cannot make it work in a fixed width page with margin: 0 auto;, it appears against the left edge of the window. See http://dave.homelessatnyu.com/example/ for reference. The CSS is /style/style.css in the section marked /* nav */

If anyone can help me with either of these issues, I would be greatly appreciative.

I have not fallen from grace; Grace has fallen from me.
