Good morning!

I'm rebuilding a site I used to work with straight html, and am working on using css (new to me, but starting to make some sense - especially on saving time!). I've spent several hours reading tutorials here and a couple of other places, then searched through this forum, and can't find a clear enough explanation. I guess I'm just too ignorant to figure out what is probably a small problem.

I'm trying to use an image as the marker in an unordered list. All the tutorials indicate the following to accomplish that:

ul { list-style-image:url('sqpurple.gif');}

I can't find anything that shows exactly how the "url" portion works. I have tried several versions of:

ul ( list-style-image:http://www.renttexashillcountry.com/siteimages('/smalltxflag.jpg');

and just can't get it to work showing the image. I have it done right now as individual paragraphs and line breaks - pain in the butt! Here's what I'm after:

Can someone please fill me in on what I'm getting wrong? I know I'm just missing something that I'll feel stupid about when I'm told.

Thanks in advance for the assist! Have a great day, and God bless!

Son of a Gun! Gave it a couple more tries, and I think it's right...

UL {
list-style-image:url('http://www.renttexashillcountry.com/siteimages/smalltxflag.jpg');

That works in my editor. Quick followup question, though...

Do I stick it in the css as it is, or as

#main ul li {list-style-image:url('http://www.renttexashillcountry.com/siteimages/smalltxflag.jpg'); ?

Thanks!
