Obviously it doesn't work in IE. In every other browser each <li> is displayed in a row. But in IE, each <li> is on it's own row.

Add this to your css

 

#wrapper ul li {float:left;} 

 

That code makes IE work. Display inline wouldn't work there because it would only display inline for each concurrent elements, hence IE would not work, it worked in FF, because Firefox has compatible code
