In reply to: Is it possible to remove <li> in links?Oops, forgot to go back and edit that CSS rule… That should have been something more like:
<pre>
table#menutable ul li {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: left;
}
</pre>
Again, that’s after adding the ‘menutable’ id to the appropriate table tag.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Is it possible to remove <li> in links?Wicked, aren’t we? There have been lots of things written about semantic markup, so I won’t bother trying to recap the argument here again. Let’s just say that as more and more people learn how to use “semantically correct” HTML and then use CSS to style it, the better off the web will be.
But if you don’t have time to relearn everything right now, and want to continue using your table-based layout, you can still make it work. As mentioned above, you can just add some ul/li rules to your CSS to get rid of the bullets and indents. However, you might want to use lists in some of your posts, so you probably want to target things more narrowly. I suggest adding an attribute to the table which contains your Categories and links, like ‘id=”menutable”‘. Then add the following rules to your CSS:
<pre>
table#menutable {
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
text-align: left;
}
</pre>
That should fix up the links in the top section of your page without affecting any bulleted lists that you might want to include in your posts.Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: more optionsUnder the Options screen, there is a submenu with “Other Options”, “General Blog Settings”, etc. as shown in that screen shot. Are those not showing up correctly? Exactly what are you seeing and not seeing?

In reply to: Link DisplayIf you’re running the 0.72 beta version, you can use the new get_links_list() function instead of get_links().

In reply to: CSS and MozillaYour web server is serving up your CSS file as MIME type ‘text/plain’ instead of ‘text/css’.
Try creating an ‘.htaccess’ file with this line in it:
AddType text/css .cssForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Link CategoriesIn your index.php, which function are you using to display your links? The default uses get_links(), which doesn’t honor the settings in the Link Manager screens. Try using the get_links_list() function and see if that does what you want.

In reply to: get_links_list()Huh? It should be in the tooltip (it’s supposed to get set as the title of the link). What exactly are you seeing?
