 * how come when i add a <br/> link into the list, in IE it’ll show up as a break,
   but in firefox it ignores the break command? I know this probably isn’t the best
   way to get some space between different link categories, but I’m too lazy to 
   go figure ou tthe css for this.

 * I have noticed in the past that I sometimes had to add two <br>’s to get the 
   desired affect.
    Maybe two will do?

 * The br doesn’t show in Netscape either so it must be a Mozilla thang. (not that
   this helps you any 🙁

 * Might I suggest that hand coding br tags in is not *a good thing*. That is not
   semantic mark up, and it destroys a degree of the automation we enjoy. Plus as
   you observe you get inconsitency across platforms. Link spacing can be styled
   like everything else in the CSS. Try line-height: xxpx;

 * yea, but line-height seems to have a different effect on the links list that 
   I add through the admin section than with other menus I might add through the
   index file.

 * Well that is do with cascading and inheritance. You need to apply it to all the
   selectors you have invoked.
