   Hi Brandon,

   Great to see your working to improve the blog. However, your navigation is completely broke in Google Chrome, and I guess (but don't know for sure) Apple Safari....

   With this and over 150 validation errors I'm not so sure if the issue is happening because of my browser alone, and I hope you all will fix the navigation sooner or later for those who browse with the webkit engine. I mean, if Apple Safari also is seeing this issue, and again, I can be wrong about this, but if it is, it isn't helping convincing them to move to Windows....

   Best of luck brandon, your doing a great job, just the navigation is now a big mess.

   Oh, and under IE8 it looks good. However, it would be nice if the menu's have a little light-effect from solid blue to a little whiter blue. Currently it looks a bit to plain compared to the rest to the site... Thanks!

   Peter van Dam, thanks for the comments! We'll look into the issue and try to resolve the problem with the new menu rendering incorrectly with Webkit browsers.

   Hi Peter. I work with the dev team that revised the site navigation scheme. After checking Chrome (v. 3.0.195.124 on Windows XP Pro on my box) it appears that everything is working normally.

   You might try a hard refresh to make sure all the style changes are recognized and interpreted correctly by your browser. Also, if you can post some additional information about your system, we'll see if we can reproduce the issue here to pin down the root cause.

   In IE8 works fine but in Opera does not work too well.

   Hi Jim,

   I've checked, but i'm still seeing issues with Chrome 4. Sure, I know it's beta, and maybe it's simply them to blame, but I do see improvements though....

   Right now, the very second I visit the site, the menu bar simply doesn't show up like it should be. It's like the CSS hasn't been loaded, so now things are just put on top of the site, not in the menus it should be.

   After a simple refresh or a visit to a other page solves the issue. Maybe it does know the css then, and renders it correctly. The issue must be something in there. I'll check tomorrow at work (if I have time) to see if I can repro the issue there and see if it's cache related.

   Keep up to good work!

    Ok, I cannot reproduce the issue i'm seeing here in chrome with the same chrome version at work (but with xp). So I guess it's a bit of a browser issue... Thanks again for checking out though!
