I also added the CSS used for the wrapper and headings and paras. I will mark them as separate. Please note that if you use this, you may need to zero or re- calculate the padding and margin of the ul, li, h3 (if used) and p. The reason is I am using a gloab reset with nothing spec'd for ul and li so mine are effectively zero except as marked. */ /* First define a content are width and position, if needed.

I'm also clearing the p, but I don't really need this for the top one, only the bottom. The top has no effect (it'll clear the heading by default), but it is needed for the bottom (depending on the shell width versus the ul width). It may not be needed at all.
