• 1) In FF, and I think IE, there is a floating bullet on the top left of the page. I can’t seem to find it, so anyone else know where to remove this?

    2) In IE where there is the second search box, there is a block of colour which hides the header image. What do I need to do to fix this?

    3) Finally the page isn’t validating due to the livesearch code, can anyone tell me what I need to do to validate it – Livesearch and WP can validate as I’ve seen on other sites, but in this case I’m stumped.

    Thanks in advance

  • Unless I’m misunderstanding where you are looking, what you’re seeing as a floating bullet is actually part of the header image.

    Ok well I managed to get the validation sorted by using Transitional and making some edits.

    WIth regards to the bullet, here’s the screen grab:

    The pointy one you refer to is part of the design, but the one outside of it is not. Of course I only get this in FF not in IE for some reason.

    I also seemed to have solved the search block problem covering the headerimage. So just need get that strange bullet removed.

    #navlist
    {
    text-align: right;
    font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'arial narrow', arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;
    margin: 180px 0px 0px 0px;
    padding: 0 0 0px 0px;
    border-bottom: 0px solid #000;

    list-style:none
    }

    tried that, but it’s still sitting there, looking at me with a smug grin.

    Jinsan,
    You might want to try something like this:

    #navcontainer ul {list-style:none}
    or
    #navcontainer ul#navlist {list-style:none}

    Hmm well one of them made the bullet point turn black, so I guess it’s a change, but neither removes the bullet. I bet it’s something so simple, but I can’t put my finger on it. the validation checks out, so where’s this bgger coming from?

    Hey Jinsan,

    I refreshed, and it looks like your CSS doesn’t reflect the change I recommended to you first.

    Yeha I know, I added the change and when it didn’t work I removed it. I haven’t found any additional li’s in the header.php from what I can see. So…baffling

    Why do you need a single item unordered list? If you remove the list, and use a right alignment for your <div id="navdiv"> you should be ok.

    because i may add more things to it, i just want it to work with the single item first before I add others.
