Hello there...
i'm trying to make a menu using normal html list-items and css.
I have this code:
ul
{
list-style-image: url(../images/arrow_Textlink.jpg);
}
#base li a
{
display: block;
background-color: #CCCCCC;
}
#base li a : will create a block underneath my textlink.
But not underneath my list-style-image.
Is this possible?
Thanx in advance
Koen

If you want the image to be contained in the block, you need to change it to this:
li {
background: #CCCCCC url(/images/yourimage.gif) no-repeat;
padding-right:24px; // assuming your image is 20px wide
}
li a {
display:block;
}
This will create the same affect you're looking for

Thanx...
But that only solves part of my problem.
What i didn't mention clearly, my menu are buttons (including a a:hover)
When i apply:
li a:hover {
display:block;
background-color: #FF0000;
}
to your example the part under my image won't give a different backgournd-color state.
Can this also be solved?
Again thanx in advance
Koen

That's because you didn't make the canvas / background of the image transparent.
Start with a transparent canvas, create your image, then it will work fine. That will need to be saved as either gif or png, jpg does not support transparent backgrounds. When saved you have to have explicitly made the background area save as transparent, very easy to do in fireworks, don't know about photoshop or the gimp.
