Thanks for looking in to this issue, and for the tips. Unfortunately, tips #1 and #2 did not seem to resolve the problem.
I am told that the menus will work when the page containing both the movie and the menus is viewed in MSIE ver 7, so this problem seems to be specific to MSIE ver 6.
Due to time constaints, I can not look in to using javascript at this time, so I will just open a menu-less version of the movie pages in a separate window/tab for now.
