artisteer setting up main menu in left position

this si the look that i require

You need to give it the following attributes to the ul, ol, and the children of them also: ull.a, ol.a, etc...

Example:
ul.a {list-style-type: none;}
ol.a {list-style-type: none;}

thanks for that were do i find the
ul.a {list-style-type: none;}
ol.a {list-style-type: none;}
please joomla config, css or i artisteer before i bring it over or after i have droped it in

you will find it in the style.css

when you find the code I am talking about, it will look something like this:

ul.a {list-style-type: circle;}

You will change it to:
ul.a {list-style-type: none;}

this is the css and they alresy seem to be marked to none
