actually go anywhere.

They don't work, the browser remains on the homepage

Expected Results:  
Depending on the section of the nav bar: open up a submenu on mousover with
clickable links; when clicked on, go to the target page.

In addition, if preferences are changed to remove the mouseover menus, the cells
do not return to their normal color after the mouse leaves the cell.

Confirming and correcting the URL in the summary (the .co.uk suffix has been
missing).

The links do not work because the code is not well formed:

<a href="..."><td>...</td></a>

while it should be:

<td><a href="...">...</a></td>

and <a>'s style should be set to "display:block".

It appears that they have changed their site layout, and have removed the
IE-specific javascript menus.
