It looks like the browser is doing what you asked. Every browser has default margin and padding on <ul> and <li> elements. When working with lists I always set both margin and padding to remove the variation caused by these differing defaults. hth Roger, Roger Roelofs "Remember, if you’re headed in the wrong direction, God allows U-turns!" ~Allison Gappa Bottke ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
