Spry menu problems. Please help.

Question

Hello,
I am new to web design so please try and be patient with me . 
I am trying to create a horizontal spry menu bar into a new page.  Even though I select horizontal, the menu is vertical.  I have read through many previous posts and FAQ'q, but cannot find the answer.  It is not just in IE, it is in every browser and dreamweaver itself.  I am using 5.5.
UPDATE-- If I create the spry into a new blank HTML document, it works just fine. So I imagine it is something to do with the template?
Heres the code:
LAYOUT INFORMATION: describes box model, positioning, z-order
/* The outermost container of the Menu Bar, an auto width box with no margin or padding */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal
          margin: 0;
          padding: 0;
          list-style-type: none;
          font-size: 100%;
          cursor: default;
          width: auto;
/* Set the active Menu Bar with this class, currently setting z-index to accomodate IE rendering bug: http://therealcrisp.xs4all.nl/meuk/IE-zindexbug.html */
ul.MenuBarActive
          z-index: 1000;
/* Menu item containers, position children relative to this container and are a fixed width */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li
          margin: 0;
          padding: 0;
          list-style-type: none;
          font-size: 100%;
          position: relative;
          text-align: left;
          cursor: pointer;
          width: 8em;
          float: none;
/* Submenus should appear below their parent (top: 0) with a higher z-index, but they are initially off the left side of the screen (-1000em) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul
          margin: 0;
          padding: 0;
          list-style-type: none;
          font-size: 100%;
          z-index: 1020;
          cursor: default;
          width: 8.2em;
          position: absolute;
          left: -1000em;
/* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to auto so it comes onto the screen below its parent menu item */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
          left: auto;
/* Menu item containers are same fixed width as parent */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li
          width: 8.2em;
/* Submenus should appear slightly overlapping to the right (95%) and up (-5%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul ul
          position: absolute;
          margin: -5% 0 0 95%;
/* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to 0 so it comes onto the screen */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
          left: auto;
          top: 0;
DESIGN INFORMATION: describes color scheme, borders, fonts
/* Submenu containers have borders on all sides */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul
          border: 1px solid #CCC;
/* Menu items are a light gray block with padding and no text decoration */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a
          display: block;
          cursor: pointer;
          background-color: #EEE;
          padding: 0.5em 0.75em;
          color: #333;
          text-decoration: none;
/* Menu items that have mouse over or focus have a blue background and white text */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a:hover, ul.MenuBarHorizontal a:focus
          background-color: #33C;
          color: #FFF;
/* Menu items that are open with submenus are set to MenuBarItemHover with a blue background and white text */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemHover, ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover, ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
          background-color: #33C;
          color: #FFF;
SUBMENU INDICATION: styles if there is a submenu under a given menu item
/* Menu items that have a submenu have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenu and are set to use a background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenu
          background-image: url(SpryMenuBarDown.gif);
          background-repeat: no-repeat;
          background-position: 95% 50%;
/* Menu items that have a submenu have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenu and are set to use a background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul a.MenuBarItemSubmenu
          background-image: url(SpryMenuBarRight.gif);
          background-repeat: no-repeat;
          background-position: 95% 50%;
/* Menu items that are open with submenus have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenuHover and are set to use a "hover" background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover
          background-image: url(SpryMenuBarDownHover.gif);
          background-repeat: no-repeat;
          background-position: 95% 50%;
/* Menu items that are open with submenus have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenuHover and are set to use a "hover" background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover
          background-image: url(SpryMenuBarRightHover.gif);
          background-repeat: no-repeat;
          background-position: 95% 50%;
BROWSER HACKS: the hacks below should not be changed unless you are an expert
/* HACK FOR IE: to make sure the sub menus show above form controls, we underlay each submenu with an iframe */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal iframe
          position: absolute;
          z-index: 1010;
          filter:alpha(opacity:0.1);
/* HACK FOR IE: to stabilize appearance of menu items; the slash in float is to keep IE 5.0 from parsing */
@media screen, projection
          ul.MenuBarHorizontal li.MenuBarItemIE
                    display: inline;
                    f\loat: left;
                    background: #FFF;
ul.MenuBarHorizontal {
          width:8em;
          margin: auto;
And this is the HTML for the menu bar when insterted into a page:
InstanceBeginEditable name="Header" -->
            <div class="Header">
              <ul id="MenuBar1" class="MenuBarHorizontal">
                <li><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="#">Item 1</a>
                  <ul>
                    <li><a href="#">Item 1.1</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">Item 1.2</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">Item 1.3</a></li>
                  </ul>
                </li>
                <li><a href="#">Item 2</a></li>
                <li><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="#">Item 3</a>
                  <ul>
                    <li><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="#">Item 3.1</a>
                      <ul>
                        <li><a href="#">Item 3.1.1</a></li>
                        <li><a href="#">Item 3.1.2</a></li>
                      </ul>
                    </li>
                    <li><a href="#">Item 3.2</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">Item 3.3</a></li>
                  </ul>
                </li>
                <li><a href="#">Item 4</a></li>
              </ul>
            </div>
            <!-- InstanceEndEditable --><!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="Main Content" -->
Thank you for any and all help!

Answer 1

Ok so I decided to make a nice menu through fireworks.
This confuses me even further, how did you make a SpryMenuBar through FW?
It now works, but the links to the drop down menu are not horizontal in the drop down menu.
So it doesn't work
And this is only when trying to enter it into the template, into a new HTML it works fine..So it does work
Unforuntely I cannot post the website
Well, our worries are over, there is no need to correct the problem, no one will ever see the website.
Yes, I am being facetious.
In all seriousness, you can upload the website to a temporary location. This way we will be able help you.
Have a happy New Year!
