See where the <li> item two opens and then note where the </li> is placed. ================= Barry, I've been working on the innermost lists first. I've coded those as if they are separate lists; they are the pages (not Indexes). I next need to connect their indexes to the innermost lists under the indexes. First, I'm confused about how the "Home Page" is connected into the List as the Top Item? If all Item-Indexes relate to Home Page, then all Main-Item-Indexes become an Item Two? And Sub-Folder Indexes become Level 3s? And innermost item-clauses would be either Level 3 (if no sub-Folder Index) or become Item-Clause Level 4? Is that kind of right?? Does having a DIV mean the Home Page is on the same "level" as the div, or does DIV automatically make the top item (my Home Page) into a Level Item Two? And, in trying to follow your example, almost all my Main-Item-Indexes have Item-Indexes which have many item-clauses in them. So I'm unsure what code (if any) goes in between each Item-Index [with their clauses]. I did a text mark up of letters... I put A before an Index or Sub-Folder Index with Aa and Bb after an Index /before pages so I could see the Item-indexes and the sub-folder-index-items, plus see them separate from the blocks of innermost item-clauses (to use your terms). So example: Home Page AA Section Main Folder Index ---Item Level One Aa Bb AA Sub-folder One Index---Item Level Two Ab Bb Pages 1, 2 3 etc. AA Sub-folder Two Index---Item Level Two Aa Bb Pages 1, 2 3 etc. etc. AA Section Main Folder Index ---Item Level One etc. Now I'm trying to figure out if I need to revise my A-Aa-Bb text markings? (they don't match your list codes) And figure out which list codes match my silly text markup. I'm thinking of doing the ul or li in just in text view without brackets (so I can see the levels and nests), but I'm concerned about messing up where one nested list (sub-folder/pages) meets another nested list (sub-folder and pages). Could you or anyone explain but using what is helping me understand, a text mark up of letters before/after each section... Or should I use ul without the brackets as text-marking only that I can then change later to tags in html? I have a few more days' work before I start putting codes around the next level up from Item-clauses. Any comments about what's confusing me? Judy
