Thank you, David. That did the trick. I posted a view of what you suggested
at: http://advancewm.com/test_menu.htm
The essential parts were:
#leftnav3 ul ul {
margin: 1px 0;
background: url(/s5/left-nav-bar.gif) repeat-y top left;
padding: 1px 0;
list-style: none;
}
#leftnav3 ul ul li {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background-color: #fff;
display: block;
}
The display:block allowed the white background of the LI to cover the UL's
background image.
Best regards -- Tony
