Subject: [css-d] list background image bug, and gaps, in IE 6/7

On this page

http://sparklejet.com/listbug/services/

in the left-side navigation,  Safari/Firefox renders correctly while  IE 6/7 is 
buggy.

There are 2 problems: big vertical gaps between the list items in IE, and the 
bg image appearing in the nested list submenu links.

My nav menu is structured as an unordered list. The bg image sprite for the 
top-level navigation list is called in "#nav ul li a". The sub-menu (in plain 
text beneath "Services") is a nested UL, so I have background:none on "#nav ul 
ul li a"

However, in Internet Explorer, the "Services" image sprite is rendered as the 
background on each of the 4 linked list items below "Services" in the menu (the 
nested UL). The BG image should not be showing on the sub-menu items. The last 
sub-menu list item is unlinked and is not affected by the bug. 

Why does IE ignore my background:none? How can I get IE to not display the bg 
image (a.k.a. how can I make IE render properly as seen in Safari/Firefox) on 
the links? And how can I close the gaps between the main list items in IE?
