thanks in advance.

I was not able to get to your site to see what you mean. I find myself always going back to alistapart.com for their taming lists with css article for all my list based menus. Maybe that will help a bit.

can't see it too
looks like the site is empty or something like that

can you check please?

If you are copying the stylesheet data directly you could just have a new template where you can kind of start anew as far as the stylesheet goes. This might help narrow things down instead of working with the current default stylesheet. Just a thought.

thanks guys,
my site is up again now ( i think dyndns may have a temp issue.)

I thought of creating a new template but it wouldn't build my menu for me automatically would it?

[i know - how lazy can one man get

]

I am so close with this too, it would be a shame for it not to work.

Got an idea on the site probem.... maybe if you could type
I have never seen a link where after the www its a / like as in what you said

my attempt is here... http://www/polygonsoup.net - sorry i seem to have trouble with this address at the moment.

maybe you mean http://www.polygonsoup.net

hehe - sorry bobd - genuine typo - i too have never seen such a silly mistake

(that I hadn't made)

that wasn't the problem i reffered to though

- [slightly off topic but... my prob was that despite dyndns haveing the correct ip niether my domain name nor my dyndns domain name worked but my http://ip did. )

my menu issue still illudes me.
