# CSS validation question

 * My CCS file has the following setup –
 *     ```
       #contentleft ul li{
       	background:transparent url("images/ul-bullet.gif") 0px 3px no-repeat; /* 0px = horizontal position for left, 6px = vertical position from top */
       	margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
       	padding: 0px 0px 0px 18px;
       	}
       ```
   
 * But, I get the following CSS validation error from it.
 * `207 #contentleft ul li Value Error : background Too many values or values are
   not recognized : transparent url("images/ul-bullet.gif") 0 3px no-repeat transparent
   url("images/ul-bullet.gif") 0 3px no-repeat`
 * Does anyone know where the error lies?

 * Okay, I figured it out myself. The theme is older and not being kept up by the
   author. I just replaced “no-repeat” with “background-repeat: no-repeat” and that
   did the trick.
 * Thanks for being here for support anyway.
