yes, I guess setting the margin to 0 overrides the default.

Hooray!

yes, since the dd is a child node of dl, you are setting the margin for that, not for the parent.

Cascading Style Sheets: think of the styles as a waterfall, always flowing down...

BTW - I know everybody uses Firebug, but in the Firefox Web Developer tool, there is an "edit CSS" feature that allows you to change the css for every stylesheet in play and immediately see the results (you still have to save and upload it) - great for Drupal theming!

Hmm, I'll have a look at the block thing. I know what you mean, I have yet to master that element, I often find weird things with it.

As for the default margin on the dl, the dl in the code is assigned a margin of 0. If I change that to a minus value it does shift the bit up I want to shift up, but why would it be 'down' if set to 0?

EDIT
I made a new line with dl#clanmenu{margin: 0;} and that seemed to sort it.

Cheers.
I also find some CSS things like that wierd, I have the margin set to 0 on the code

dl#clanmenu dd {
  padding:0;
  margin: 0;
  }

But it seems to want an exact instance of it. Presumably that's then only for the dd within the dl.
urgh

Hey greg, Can you post a

Hey greg,

Can you post a link? of the full code?

my guess would be somewhere in here:

display:block; 
  width:5em; 
  height:3em;

display:block; can do funny things

also, depending on your body font size, 3em could be arond 25px?

another idea:

doesn't dl have a default top margin? try

dl#clanmenu{
  margin-top: -25px;
  }
