Hello! I hope I've posted in right forum. Can you spot what I did wrong with nesting OL with UL? My ul nav buttons got wierd when I started nesting OL. I now have "1." on leftside of buttons My OL listing came out right correct: 1. 2. --2.1 ----2.1.1 3. 4. --4.1 I think maybe triple nesting may have hosed it. http://www.my-yardsale.com----page with errors Thank you to anyone who can help!! layout.css #button { width: 12em; border-right: 1px solid #000; padding: 0 0 1em 0; margin-bottom: 1em; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Lucida, Geneva, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; background-color: #808080; color: #333; } #button ul { list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; border: none; } #button li { border-bottom: 1px solid #DDDDDD; margin: 0; } #button li a { display: block; padding: 5px 5px 5px 0.5em; border-left: 10px solid #4B4B4B; border-right: 10px solid #508fc4; background-color: #666666; color: #000000; text-decoration: none; width: 100%; } html>body #button li a { width: auto; } #button li a:hover { border-left: 10px solid #646464; border-right: 10px solid #C0C0C0; background-color: #969696; color: #242424; !<----head:----> <style type="text/css"> body { background-image: url('images/bg22.jpg'); background-attachment: fixed; } ol { counter-reset: item } li { display: block } li:before { content: counters(item, ".")
