Hi Rick,

this part seems to be invalid html because ul is not allowed as a child of ul:
     <li>Item 5</li>
     <ul>
       <li>Item 1 indented</li>
       <li>Item 2 indented</li>
     </ul>
     <li>Item 6</li>
Maybe you want something like this
     <li>Item 5
     <ul>
       <li>Item 1 indented</li>
       <li>Item 2 indented</li>
     </ul>
     </li>
     <li>Item 6</li>
Pls clarify,

Regards, Manfred
