Menu problem - sidebar menu items not getting wrapped in <ul>
Hello again, I've got a site here: http://www.wals.lib.wi.us/drupal/ (I'm using a modified version of the multiflex theme) If you look at the menus on the right, the lists are pushed to the left, so the bullets are chopped in half. (looks ok in IE) viewing the source, I noticed that menus I create don't get wrapped in <ul></ul>. Rather, they're stranded <li>'s. Using the standard Bluemarine template, it works fine. So, that leads me to believe it's a problem with my template. From what I can tell, that would be defined in block.tpl.php, right? If it is, does this look ok? <?php // Content region needs different wrapper divs if ($block->region =='content') { ?> <div class="content<?php echo $layoutcode ?>-container line-box"> <div class="content<?php echo $layoutcode ?>-container-1col"> <p class="content1-pagetitle"><?php print $block->subject?></p> <div class="content-txtbox-shade"> <?php print ($block->content) ?> </div> </div> </div> <?php } // Test to see if the main menu is being output. If so, // use a special class to format it properly elseif ($block->module == 'user' and $block->delta == '1') { ?> <p class="sidebar-title-noshade bg-blue07"> <?php print "$block->subject"; ?></p> <div class="sidebar-txtbox-noshade bg-grey03 mainmenu"> <ul> <?php print $block->content; ?> </ul> </div> <?php } else // normal sidebar { $colours = array("grey","grey","grey","grey"); $colour=$colours[$block_id % 4]; // a bit of a fudge, but it will do for now. ?> <p class="sidebar-title-noshade bg-<?php print $colour ?>07"> <?php print "$block->subject"; ?></p> <div class="sidebar-txtbox-noshade bg-<?php print $colour ?>03"> <?php print $block->content; ?> </div> <?php } ; ?> Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. - jody
I would hazard a guess that any issues would be in your css file. With menu items, ul and li settings tend to be overridden by menu- specific lists, including li.leaf, li.expanded, etc. I would look there before breaking apart your php template files.

Hello,

But, the stylesheet doesn't tell drupal to put in <ul> where there should be a list. Does it? Just as a test, I removed the stylesheet, and the problem still existed. Any normal block with links gets wrapped in <ul></ul>, but any menu I've created, the lists within them are not wrapped in <ul></ul>. Is there anything else it could be? - jody
