Menu height squeezed in IE 9

[Clive Hoggar]

I have a horizontal menu that works perfectly and looks exactly as intended in 2011 version of Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.
But - surprise - does look right in IE 9.   What happens is that the height of the menu is squeezed by about 5 pixels, so that it is less than the divider images. On mouseover the height of the buttons is correct. 

I am using Q3 2010 and don't want to pay for a version upgrade just for this issue on this site.
Is there a css hack that can be applied to correct the button height for the case of IE9 browser?

See attached screen shot

Thanks

Hi Clive,

I tested the issue that you describe with the 2010.3.1215.35 version of the Telerik controls but I am not able to get the appearance that you do. Below is the markup that I used. Can you modify it so that it replicates the problematic appearance?

<telerik:RadMenu runat="server" ID="RadMenu1">
            <Items>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item1">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item2">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item3">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item4">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item5">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item6">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item7">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item8">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item9">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item10">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item11">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
                <telerik:RadMenuItem Text="item12">
                </telerik:RadMenuItem>
            </Items>
        </telerik:RadMenu>

 
All the best,

Thanks for your example, which matched what I have. This made me go off looking for css errors,
and I found a forgotten XUA fix in the home page that forced IE to behave as IE7 . After removing that,
all is now well!

Thanks

Clive
