Hi Walter,

I am a novice wrt sytlesheets and still don't have a good stronghold on 
html concepts,

I tried some code below in my _index.html.erb :-


<div class="description">
<ul>
  <%= javascript_include_tag :defaults, :cache => true %>
  <%=stylesheet_link_tag "groups"%>
  <% for inv_group in @investor_group2 %>

  <%=image_tag "investor_groups/#{inv_group.title}.jpg" , :width => 
'40', :height => '22', :align => 'left' %><li><%=h 
inv_group.title%>(<%=h inv_group.activated_members.size %>)</li>

  <%end%>
</ul>
</div>


and In my groups.css I did something like:-

.description{
    width: 40%
}
.icon{
    width: 40%
}
.

This change in the code had an affect on the auto complete functionality 
and now a particular group doesn't get highlighted on doing a mouse over 
to it(Kindly refer:- 
http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/viewimage.php?id=2054 ). I am not sure 
where I am doing what wrong that the functionality is getting affected 
as a result.

Kindly guide me to correct my mistake(s) on this

Thanks..
