I have a bunch of list items in an unordered list styled for a navigation menu, and in Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera, things work fine. What is supposed to happen is wh...

I am developing a small web-utility that displays some data from some database tables. I have the utility running fine on FF, Safari, Chrome..., but the memory management on IE8 is horrendous.
