I'm working on this kind of pet AJAX project, and I have it working, by and large, except it sucks on IE, and Safari, and otherwise has not been tested on any non-Mozilla/Netscape browsers. If you have Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape/Camino, take a look at it to see what it should do. Contrast this to the behavior in [browser name here]. The Safari behavior is weird because it just seems to be mis-rendering it. By contrast, I just have no clue what IE is doing with regard to positioning the dropdowns. Whereas Moz/NS browsers position the dropdown relative to the bottom left corner of the parent span, IE seems to be positioning it relative to the top and some imaginary point a fixed width away on the right, even if the span is not that wide.

I need CSS ninjas to tell me what the hell is up.
