This forum is focused on Dreamweaver extensions, you should ask your question in the Dreamweaver General forum as there is much more traffic and it's focused on general issues such as CSS:

At quick glance it appears that it has to do with the width of the page, on my screen in IE7 at the "normal" size I use for IE7 the menu doesn't appear, but when I make the window wider it shows up again. It may be that you have the width of your content div set as 80%, and if that 80% plus the width of your nav bar, then because you have the content div floated then the nav div will get pushed down (or even moved off screen or something). Why this appears to work in Firefox, but not IE not quite sure, but ask your question in the Dreamweaver General forum and I'm sure that someone will have a clue as to what is going on with this..
