As I did some of my own poking around, I went ahead and increased the width of 
the disc-list and found that I could then eliminate the short wrap that is 
inherited from the menu list. So does that mean that I need to have a width 
declaration for every other list style - I thought if I was using a differen 
class I would not need to have to mention every property:value  that is 
addressed in the menu lists styles

Looking forward to your input.

Subject: Multiple list via CSS - newbie question...


As I start to immerse myself into the world of CSS and Web Standards I thought 
I would use Nick Rigby's excellent list menu code from A List Apart 
(http://www.alistapart.com/articles/horizdropdowns/)
 
I then tweaked the code to change the colors and then tweaked it for another 
verison on the same page. However, now I am in a bit of a quandry because when 
I go to add a regular list within the content of the page, I inherit values 
from the menu list style. 
The test page is available at:
http://www.shrikhande.us/CSSTest/
 
For starters, I seek your counsel on:
1- Is my approach the best way to address the two different nav styles.
and.
2. How should I modify my style sheet so the lists that are styled within the 
content area of the page are not influenced by the meun style.
 
I look forward toyour advice.
 
TIA!
