Thanks Tim!! If it works with the regular styles then we're onto a
winner (I'd not changed the large styles one... one step at a time at
the moment).

Yeah, the min font size is causing the problems.. the basefont size of
the body is larger than the basefont size of the menu. Hence the min
font size affects the menu first (which means they don't match).

I'll post again when I've updated the main site.
