Can't find MSIE error!

    I’ve got a site with two templates. One is showing fine in both Firefox and MSIE, but the main template isn’t. It’s fine in Firefox, but my drop-down menu is all screwed up in MSIE…and I can’t use the Developer’s toolbox in Firefox to find what’s causing it!

    Does anyone have ideas on where to look?

    The site is: https://cantateop.org/
    As you can see if you look at it in Firefox or if you look at the Mexicali template in MSIE, there is supposed to be a drop-down menu under the “About” tag. That’s what’s screwed up in the regular template in MSIE.

    At the moment, my only idea is to comment out sections of CSS commands, one at a time, and see if that somehow helps me find the problem.

    My Mexicali and regular templates aren’t identical. The Mexicali one has this, above the regular code, after the template naming stuff:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" <?php language_attributes() ?>>
<head profile="https://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
	<title><?php wp_title( '-', true, 'right' ); echo wp_specialchars( get_bloginfo('name'), 1 ) ?></title>
	<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type') ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset') ?>" />
	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url') ?>" />
<?php wp_head() // For plugins ?>
	<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url') ?>" title="<?php printf( __( '%s latest posts', 'sandbox' ), wp_specialchars( get_bloginfo('name'), 1 ) ) ?>" />
	<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="<?php bloginfo('comments_rss2_url') ?>" title="<?php printf( __( '%s latest comments', 'sandbox' ), wp_specialchars( get_bloginfo('name'), 1 ) ) ?>" />
	<link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url') ?>" />
</head>

    This code is, of course, at the top of the header.php file. Is it supposed to be that way? Or did I somewhere along the line move it there? Now that I think about it, I can see that having it at the top of header.php might cause problems…but I could have sworn that that was how sandbox came…

    Nevermind. Stupid me.

    I forgot that I had stuck a commented-out note at the top of header.php, and apparently that’s what was causing all the trouble.
