SPRY conflict with "remote linking"

[stars4lani]

I’m having trouble trying to implement the second remote linking freebie from this site into a page that also contains a SPRY menu bar-

http://lanitrock.com/index2.html

There are multiple css files
One for the spry menu bar which the code is:

Code:

@charset “UTF-8”;

/* SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css – version 0.6 – Spry Pre-Release 1.6.1 */

/* Copyright (c) 2006. Adobe Systems Incorporated. All rights reserved. */

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

}
/* 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
{

margin: -5% 0 0 95%;
}
/* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to 0 so it comes onto the screen */

/*******************************************************************************

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;
float: left;
background: #FFF;
}
}

and there is the css for the remote linking:

Code:

/*
CSS-Tricks Example

*/

* { margin: 0; padding: 0; }
body { font: 12px Helvetica, Sans-Serif; }

#page-wrap { width: 600px; margin: 50px auto; }

h1 { font-size: 30px; letter-spacing: -1px; margin: 0 0 20px 0; }

.people { position: relative; }
a { text-decoration: none; color: #222; display: block;
margin: 0 0 0 270px; outline: none; padding: 5px; }
a img { border: 1px solid #ccc; }
a:hover { background: #ffefcd; }
a .name { font: 18px Georgia, Serif; }
a:hover .name { color: #900; font-weight: bold; }
a:hover img { border: 5px solid #222; margin: -4px; }
a .photo { display: block; position: absolute; width: 125px; height: 125px; }
#toby .photo { top: 0; left: 0; }
#tom .photo { top: 0; left: 134px; }
#gail .photo { top: 134px; left: 0; }
#padma .photo { top: 134px; left: 134px; }

something between these is conflicting and making the spry menu bar appear messy.
The spry menu bar should look like this:

I know that there is a conflict between the SPRY CSS file and the style.css file above, but I don’t know enough to discern what is causing the conflict. Would greatly appreciate the help!
Thank you!!
