Newbie and wp_list_pages

<li><a href="./" accesskey="2"><strong>About us</strong></a><em> [2]</em></li>

Is what that look likes

Perhaps i am going the wrong way about what I am trying to do,

I have a list of pages in wordpress and i wish to make a navigation bar out of them, the navigation needs to look like this,

<li><a href="./" accesskey="2"><strong>About us</strong></a><em> [2]</em></li>

The code above is an adaptation of

Sorry again if this is really obvious, and thanks for the help

<?php

				$my_pages = wp_list_pages('echo=0&title_li=&depth=1');

				$pieces = explode('"', $my_pages);
				$i = 6;
				$j = 5;
				$limit = count($pieces);
				for (;$i<$limit;) {
				$tmp1 = '><strong>'.$pieces[$j].'</strong></a></li>';
				$pieces[$i] = $tmp1;
				$i = $i+6;
				$j = $j+6;
				} 

				$tmp2 = implode('"',$pieces);

				echo $tmp2;
   				// echo "<!--".$tmp2."-->";

			?>
			</ul>

basically, I dont know wordpress and as a project to learn it i was given an existing sites mark up to convert to wordpress, the css for the navigation focuses around the targeting of elements inside the strong tag,

Here is the css I need it to obey

Access key will change but can be in sequance, 1 – 6

#nav { float: right; list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; }
  #nav li { float: left; margin-right: 1px; font-family: Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif; font-size: 1.8em; }
   #nav li a { display: block; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; padding-right: 4px; background: url(images/menu-bcg.png) 100% 0 no-repeat; text-transform: uppercase; }
    #nav li a strong { display: block; padding: 0 6px 0 10px; line-height: 30px; font-weight: normal; background: url(images/menu-bcg.png) 0 0 no-repeat; }
	#nav li a:hover,
	#nav li a.active { background-position: 100% -30px; border: 0px solid #000; }
    #nav li a:hover strong,
    #nav li a.active strong { background-position: 0 -30px; }
   #nav li em { position: absolute; left: -10001px; top: -10001px; }

Thanks again for the help

Thank you so much for your help,

Its working perfectly now, I am guessing this was a common enough error?

So in summary, what you done was take the pages array explode it, take the elements i need and disregard the rest, I think what I was doing was trying to keep the format that was returned and it messed up

Thanks again for your help
