Description
I'm using Ubiquity with Drupal 5.2. It looks/works GREAT in Firefox, but not in IE6 or IE7: On some pages the left sidebar is missing, and on other pages it's there. In doing a diff of two pages, I find the code
<span class="clear" /> </div>on the page without a menu. I remember reading that IE can't handle the
<span ... /> tag, and I'm not sure what's producing it, or if it's related to the issue I'm seeing.
You can reproduce this here:
No menu: http://www.stcharlesflyingservice.com/home
With menu: http://www.stcharlesflyingservice.com/aboutus
(I've changed my textarea.js file and added two styles for body.mceContentBody to styles.css.)
Thanks, Scott

Same issue here...terrific theme in FF, but unusable due to IE incompatibilities.
Screen shot attached.

Since you didn't configure any primary link menu items, the anonymous user only sees the blank space that _would_ be primary links... this is a configuration problem, not a bug.

Inaddition to melon comment, if you all of your primary links are restricted from anonymous users then you will see a blank space.
I think this is a bug because you should still see the menu bar, just without anything on it.

I have been thinking of a solution which would make the navigation menu completely disappear when no primary links are used, but this would involve changing the current body background image as well. In the beginning I was trying to minimize the number of contitional background images but now I know it's not possible with the design.
So I am planning to implement this and include in the next update.
