munders that is the styling for the menu. It had to fix it or else you made a mistake.

Did you refresh your browsers cache after changing the file? Hold SHIFT and click the refresh button. Sometimes browsers, particularly IE, don’t reload the css on a regular ‘refresh’ as it’s already saved it to your temporary internet files.

I did refresh the browser and cleared the cache Scotty.

Please note that i only changed the padding as advised.

Was i supposed to copy and paste the whole 9 lines or so. My template css file does not have the moz thing in it, only the following:

ul.menu li a {
display: block;
outline: none;
padding: 3px 4px;
color: #626A69;
border-bottom: 1px solid #E7E8E6;
background: url(../images/arrow.png) no-repeat 97% center;

Thanks

No you weren’t supposed to copy all of it. The padding there is what should be changed. Don;t know why it’s not working.

Do you have a live URL?

Not sure if this is the case with your menu height but some of that was controlled by the moomenu.css on another template. Maybe you can find some height/padding values of the list styles in there.
