Cannot strip li coding from category listing

I’m running WP2.1 (www.dmk.com.au) — and cannot remove the opening and closing <li> and </li> coding from the category listing in my sidebar.

I’m using the new wp_list_categories info info for 2.1.

There is some wrong info on this page about the “title_li” parameter — it says it is boolean, but then gives no true/false options. However, I found using title_li=0 worked as an argument. But — when I removed this parameter from my code, the <li> tags stayed (despite the page saying that they would be removed from display).

I see though in the Codex there is mention of a “sytle” parameter for wp_list_categories, but there no information provided yet in the docs on how to use that (maybe it will be covering the use of unordered lists?).

I’ve had no problems with stripping <li> tags from my pages listing, using this thread. That approach also worked for bookmarks using the new wp_list_bookmarks.

But alas, not for categories. I cannot use that same approach here. I don’t want <li> tags for each category entry, just a <br /> will do fine.

I can live with the current situation for now, but it in the long run I’d like to see this work properly!

Any thoughts/solutions/workarounds, without hacking the core? I cannot find anything in Support Forums or docs about this, or even via Google.
