[SOLVED] Justify Sub Items in Category Menu
 
In my attempt to widen the space between category menu items, I somehow messed up the alignment of the sub menus.
To the Add HTML/CSS I added:

div#menu1 ul.rMenu li {border-left: solid 50px white;}

I like the width of them items now.
However, I can't figure out the syntax to move the sub menu to the left.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Because CSS cascades, the border is added to that element and all it's children, there fore you have to code a selector for the child and get rid of the left border for them

Like I said, I don't know what coding to use.
What quick line would I need to put in?

You can determing what you need one of two ways
1) use the FireBug extension in FireFox to look at the elements (and test your new selector/rule) or
2) go to your page and then view the source to see what the child elements are and then you can build the selector from that.

in english your CSS says ' add a solid white 50px wide boarder to every 'li' that is a child of a 'ul' with a class of'rMenu' which is a child of a 'div' with an ID of 'menu1'

use that and look a the source to see what 'li's are effected.
