drop down menu bar in header

I have a asprunnerpro 6.2 project that is supposed to be part of an overall web site that has a horizontal menu bar at the top of the each page (under a banner). I added the code for the banner and menu bar (see below) to the header and added an associated style sheet link to the login page to begin testing.
The menu shows up and works fine in firefox but in IE I just get the top level menu items and none of the dropdowns.
Any ideas? I have noticed that after I have built the application and gone back to look at the stylesheet link, the formatting has changed. The quotation marks are missing from the rel= and type= statements. Is that related to this problem? Is there another way I am supposed to add a stylesheet to the application?
Thanks for any advise you can provide.

Here is the code for the menu that I placed in the header file:
<div id="topbanner" align="center" style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"><IMG border=0 alt=""

src="images/staticbanner.jpg">

<div id="toplinks" align="center">

<ul id="cssMenu">

Hi,
it seems there is an error in the HTML code if menu works in the Firefox but doesn't work in IE.

Please make sure menu itself works in IE and then add it to the header in ASPRunnerPro.

The menu works fine in IE on another asp page that was created outside ASPRunnerPro.
I am including the stylesheet that drives the appearance of the drop-down menu by inserting a <link statement in the various pages of the application and placing the the above "ul and li" code in the header. If I remove that <link statement the entire menu shows up but it is vertical and fully expanded. You can check out the working menu on this page http://www.pwdonline.info/international/wwevents.asp and the non working version on this page http://www.pwdonline.info/international/leaders/login.asp
Could this be an IE 8 issue?

Hi,
It's difficult to tell you what's happening without seeing actual files.

Please publish your project on Demo Account and open a ticket at http://support.xlinesoft.com sending a URL to your pages along with instructions on reproducing this error. 'Demo Account' button can be found on the last screen in the program.
