Spry menu vertical submenu IE 8 display problem

[tahsin1982]

Hi all,

Please accept my apology if this has been asked before and I would really appreaciate if someone can help me out.

I made this website which is still not complete yet and I have some problem with the spry menu as my client want the drop down menu to be shifted up more as the default was a bit low so I adjusted the margin and it looks fine on chrome and firefox but IE8 nothing changes and looks the same.

I am not really an expert on IE hacks code thats why i am posting this here.

Here is the code.

ul.MenuBarVertical
{
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
	list-style-type: none;
	font-size: 100%;
	cursor: default;
	width: 8em;
}
/* Set the active Menu Bar with this class, currently setting z-index to accomodate IE rendering bug: http://therealcrisp.xs4all.nl/meuk/IE-zindexbug.html */
ul.MenuBarActive
{
	z-index: 1000;
}
/* Menu item containers, position children relative to this container and are same fixed width as parent */
ul.MenuBarVertical li
{
	margin: 0;
	padding: 0;
	list-style-type: none;
	font-size: 100%;
	position: relative;
	text-align: left;
	cursor: pointer;
	width: 9.8em;
	border: 1px solid #6A6B41;
}
/* Submenus should appear slightly overlapping to the right (95%) and up (-5%) with a higher z-index, but they are initially off the left side of the screen (-1000em) */
ul.MenuBarVertical ul
{
	padding: 0;
	list-style-type: none;
	font-size: 100%;
	position: absolute;
	z-index: 1020;
	cursor: default;
	width: 8.2em;
	left: -1000em;
	top: -50px;
	margin-top: -10%;
	margin-right: 0;
	margin-bottom: 0;
	margin-left: 100%;
}
/* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to 0 so it comes onto the screen */
ul.MenuBarVertical ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
{
	left: 0;
}
/* Menu item containers are same fixed width as parent */
ul.MenuBarVertical ul li
{
	width: 10em;
	margin-right: 15px;
}
