Never done this, but I suspect you need to disable the wpautop.

Try
<ul>
<?php if(have_posts()) : ?><?php while(have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<li><?php the_title(); ?> - <?php the_excerpt(); ?></li>
<?php endwhile; ?><?php endif; ?>
</ul>
You may want to change the length of your expert to prevent it from just going into a new line by being a long line (55 words).
Put
<?php
function new_excerpt_length($length) {
return 20;
}
add_filter('excerpt_length', 'new_excerpt_length');
?>
in your functions php where 20 is the length of the excerpt
Not sure about disabling wpautop, but tried the coded that miocene22 posted and still got the same result, the title is on one line with the excerpt on a whole new line/paragraph.
I’m thinking i might have to delve deeper into the code to find something to do with the excerpt formatting?
If I was to disable WPautop what effect would that have of the site as a whole?
Still trying to find a way around this as it seems the excerpt has a paragraph break or something like that at the start of it.
