   hi, I am trying to supress bullets from appearing for a specific sidebar widget. the widget uses the following class for li:

   <li id="top-commentators" class="widget widget_topcomm">

   and my theme's css has:

   #l_sidebar ul li ul li {
   	background: #FFFFFF url(images/arrow.gif) no-repeat top left;
   	padding: 0px 0px 0px 15px;
   	margin: 0px;
   	}

   would be grateful if anybody could tell me what can i add to the css to prevent the bullets appearing for this widget/class.

   Try adding:

   #l_sidebar ul li ul {list-style-type:none}

   or

   #l_sidebar ul li ul li {list-style-type:none}

   hi crondeau, thanks for you reply.

   i am looking to single out one widget in the sidebar and not change the behaviour for the entire sidebar.

   don't i need to specify a class?

   apologies if this is an ignorant question.

   yes, then you would need to use the following:

   #l_sidebar ul li ul li.widget_topcomm

   or

   #l_sidebar ul li.widget_topcomm li ul

   depending if you're list tag <li id="top-commentators" class="widget widget_topcomm"> is the second or first one.

   I would actually go with the following:
   

   #l_sidebar ul li#top-commentators ul li {
      background:transparent none repeat scroll 0 0;
      list-style-image:none;
      list-style-type:none;
      padding:0;
   }

   As I think that would probably be the most specific possible declaration in this case. Also, it looks to me like the arrow is a background image, and not a list-style bullet image. So I removed the padding and background image. It works using firebug. That should be all you need to add to the CSS to make that happen.
