Your theme should be in /sites/all/themes/. You should only modify
files in the chosen theme. Generally if there are more css files than
style.css in your theme folder then they're for specific
sections/pages. In almost all cases you want to put your styles at the
bottom of style.css - especially if it's for something global like
navigation. It's quite possible any other css files are not included
on all pages. <br>
<br>
Usually if you're putting css at the end of style.css and it's not
working you need to try a different set of selectors - eg from below if
li.leaf doesn't work, try ul li.leaf or ul.menu li.leaf - but as I said
before you probably want to be more specific than any of those
suggestions because you don't want to affect your other menus, the
admin menu etc - and most menus use the menu, leaf, expanded and
collapsed tabs.<br>
<br>
As an example - I have in my style.css (which is an entirely custom
theme so I don't know whether it will work for you at all or not, this
is just an example)<br>
ul.leftnavmenu .leaf,<br>
ul.leftnavmenu .collapsed,<br>
ul.leftnavmenu .expanded{<br>
list-style:none;<br>
background:none;<br>
}<br>
<br>
which removes all decorations from all menus - because I didn't want
them.<br>

Should I need to modify the system.css and others or just the

OK, thanks for your suggestions. Drupal renders the code like this:<br>
<br>
<ul class="menu">
<br>
<li class="leaf"><a href="...">Schools</a></li><br>
<li class="leaf"><a href="...">Parents</a></li><br>
...<br>
</ul><br>
<br>
So, I have to edit the menu and leaf classes in css. However, if I want
to go
<br>
further, how do I have access to the menu structure through PHP?<br>
