IE 5.5 - 7.0 problems with background

Could someone help me with a problem I'm having with IE. The problem I'm having with my site is that in IE 5.5 - 7 the div that the language choice menu is in is hiding the title image. It works fine in IE 8. The website is http://www.renaissancedyeing.com/. To save you trawling through the code I have copied the reverent code below.

Thanks in advance

HTML Code:
<div id="container"> <div id="cart_languages"> <form style="display:inline;" action="" method="post"> <select name="lang_code" onchange="this.form.submit();"> <option value="eu">English (Euro)</option> <option value="uk" selected="selected">English (GBP)</option> <option value="us">English (USD)</option> <option value="fr">Français (Euro)</option> <option value="ja">Japanese (Yen)</option> </select> <span id="langsubmit"><input type="submit" value="Choose"></span> </form> </div> <div id="header"> <a href="/" title="Renaissance Dyeing"></a> </div> .......
Code:
body { text-align: center; background-color: #DEDEE4; font: .8em arial,sans-serif; color: #3C3C3C; } #container { width: 770px; margin: 0 auto; text-align: left; } #header { height: 112px; background: url(images/title.jpg) no-repeat; } #header a { display: block; height: 100%; width: 100%; } #cart_languages { width: 200px; text-align: right; float: right; padding: 12px; }

What happens if you set the background for the language div to transparent?

example:
Code:
#cart_languages { width: 200px; text-align: right; float: right; padding: 12px; background: transparent; }

The above may work.
If not, try setting an actual width to your header. Make it the width of the image.

Thanks htmlbasictutor, That didn't sort the problem. It was sorted when I moved the cart_languages div into the title div. I had to do a little fiddling with css as IE then pushed the menu down

Unr that would have probably also sorted the problem. But I think I'll leave it the way I did it.
