ul#navmenu selects the UL element with id=navmenu.

#navmenu selects the element with id=navmenu, regardless of its tagname.

The only time #navmenu and ul#navmenu would be different is when you have an
element with id=navmenu that is not a UL. In this case, #navmenu would
select that element, but ul#navmenu would select nothing.

#navmenu ul selects every UL element nested inside the element with
id=navmenu.
