NAV_LIST_TOP Showing as a bulleted list not as a menu

Hello,
I'm developing a site and want to use the NAV_LIST_TOP replacement tag for the primary navigation, but when I plug the reptag into the template main area all I get is the site's pages in bulleted list form.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Mark

This is fixed in frontend.css. Get to it from the backend of the cms: ADMIN > default css. Make sure your #list_top_ul li looks something like this:
Code: Select all
#list_top_ul li {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
display: inline;
Try something like this for a very simple nav:
Code: Select all
/* CSS for the top level list */
#list_top ul {
padding: 3px 0;
margin: 0;
font-size: 11px;
}
#list_top_ul li {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
display: inline;
}
#list_top_ul li a {
padding: 3px 0.5em;
margin-left: 12px;
text-decoration: none;
}
#list_top_ul li a:link { color: #000000; }
#list_top_ul li a:visited { color: #000000; }
#list_top_ul li a:hover {
color: Black;
}
#list_top_ul li a#list_top_active_link, #list_top li a#list_top_home_active_link {
font-weight: bold;
color: #000000;
}

Thanks for the reply Ben.
I tried you suggestion, but it's still not working. It's as if the reptag doesn't recognize the CSS instructions.
If you'd like to take a look, you can see the site here:

Thanks again for your help.

mstroz, will you please post the section of the css starting with /* CSS for the top level list */
and ending with /* CSS for the currect level list */. On a side note, I would definately use version 1.2.3 DEV over 1.1 if I were you.

Sure thing:
Code: Select all
/* CSS for the top level list */
#list_top ul {
padding: 3px 0;
margin: 0;
font-size: 11px;
}
#list_top_ul li {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
display: inline;
}
#list_top_ul li a {
padding: 3px 0.5em;
margin-left: 12px;
text-decoration: none;
}
#list_top_ul li a:link { color: #000000; }
#list_top_ul li a:visited { color: #000000; }
#list_top_ul li a:hover {
color: Black;
}
#list_top_ul li a#list_top_active_link, #list_top li a#list_top_home_active_link {
font-weight: bold;
color: #000000;
}
Regarding 1.2.3, is it ok to upgrade or would you suggest a clean install?
Thanks
Mark

Well ... your css looks good - I thought that maybe the list-style: none; and display: inline; lines may have gotten commented out. I'm not sure what the deal is ...
I would upgrade if you have much content and template work done on a particular install. The upgrade procedure seems to be very good, with only a few minor issues if you have file list content parts.

I'll go with the upgrade.
Thanks for giving it a shot.
