| Thanks, Tom, but I've changed the design since I had the problem.
|
| Instead, I played some tricks with tables to put the left-side menu below
| the content. That solution worked as far as the search engines are
| concerned, but when people use larger fonts the tables get ugly. You can see
| that problem if you go to ExcelUser.com and View the largest text size.
|
| So I'm looking at a full redesign, and I don't want to go through all of
| that work unless I can find some way to get search engines to ignore menu
| text when they summarize each page.
