I’m in the later stages of working on a website, and I previewed it today for the first time in IE7. It’s… kinda messed up in a lot of areas. I built it in DW CS4, previewing it in Firefox and IE8. I have knowledge of HTML and CSS, and I used a mixture of coding and WYSIWYG to create the site.Here it is: [http://www.alpha-lemur.com](http://www.alpha-lemur.com/)  
It’s just up to be tested right now, so there’s no actual cart to put products into or anything, and it’s still unfinished in a lot of ways. The main pages I’ve had problems with in IE7 are Distributors, the High-Speed Serial Products part of the Products page, and the fact that the Products drop-down menu drops _across._ My question is: how do I fix the page to work in IE7 and below while keeping the way it looks now in Firefox and IE8?  
I hope that was clear enough. If you need any of my code, let me know. Thanks in advance!
