links wont style

I keep using everything to make it vertical and get rid of the bullets but its not working.

For starters your css has some problems (http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.stylishknockouts.com%2F&profile=css21&usermedium=all&warning=1&lang=en) - looks like there's some brackets missing. This is causing inconsistencies across browsers I think - your menu is vertical in FF at the moment, for instance.

Next, you are applying float:left to #nav ul li - get rid of this.

To remove the bullet points apply list-style-type:none to your #nav ul.

Sort your css and give those a try for starters. I suspect we're not done yet...
