Sibling is an element that has the same parent as the current element.
The current element itself isn't a sibling.
The third li in the first ul has three siblings and it isn't a sibling of a
li.hilite element.
The third ul clear the question: the Nine is sibling of Eleven and Eleven is
sibling of Nine,
so both are colored.
Hope this help
Mauricio

The third li in the first ul does not colored with red in my FF3.0.3 and
