Hi all,
I've got myself going in circles with this, I initially had the same div ID
in these pages which could be multiple times. It got a validation error.
I realise now that it's a no no and have made these divs CLASSES. That
works but now some of my classes on li class=title for instance now
don't work?
I thought I'd best let the list know this is now sorted out (and anyone who
may be struggling with the same problem) many thanks to Peter Abramowicz
who said this:
The reason it was working before with ID's is that ID's are more specific
then CLASSES, once you switched to CLASSES the selector wasn't specific
enough. One solution would be to modify to the title selector - div#ufwus
li.title.
For a fuller explanation of specificity check out:

Now leaving all that aside, wouldn't it make more sense 'semantically
speaking' to have the title as a hx element?
ie.
ul h2{
font: normal bold small Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;
color: red;
margin:1em .5em 1em;
}

Thanks once more to the list and Peter.
