[No background images showing in UL for sprite navigation]

You rock Benjamin, I have my sprite navigation locked up. I am using DW8 and it has some code highlighling... perhaps it's worth a look at going to Notepad++

 

Thank you greatly!

Now that is the best advice I've heard in days! The qoute error has certainly solved an issue... now I'll take a look at your other points. Benjamin, If you've helped me solve this problem I've been working on for literally 3 days... I just might put you in my will;)

[No background images showing in UL for sprite navigation]

Trying my luck at using sprites for navigation, alas i can't even get any background images to show in an UL... or for that matter even a properly sized anything, just a text list. I have tinkered for 3 days with endless CSS combinations, checking codes... nothing. I havn't even gotten to the hover states yet.Where have i gone astray?
