I am learning to create drop down menu using css. Everything works fine in chrome, FF. But IE 8, the submenus don't pop up. All the info I read by googling said that using csshoverX.htc file from peter ned and conditional comment for IE in style sheet should make the submenu pop out, but it didn't

I have done an exhaustive googling but didn't find fix. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My very simple html, css, and csshover3.htc are attached with this post as txt files. All files are in the same folder/directory on my local machine, which is xp pro.

Thanks

The problem was missing space after the word 'Transitional' in the <!DOCTYPE ...
