I've installed the module on a couple of my sites and consistently find this "typewriter" style smudge character inserted in the first line - fourth letter of the text of every line.  See the attached .jpg.

I am confused why and how to correct or rectify.

Please help. :'(

Thank you for your response so quickly.  I will pursue that thought with the template creator.  I am not smart enough on CSS to really know what you mean! :-*

Gina,

This is in the CSS file for the RSS module. play around with that and you'll see how to remove the 'dot' - it is a great exercise for learning CSS - a very easy lesson - you'll get it out of there in no time.

I'm having the exact same problem... but I've been through every css file I can find.  Is there a CSS file for the RSS module that I'm not finding? 

There are 2 css style (*.css) files which are formatting the appearance of the line.  Your template uses one .css file and the Simple RSS Feed Reader uses another.  Both files are placing a list-style marker on the line.  If you change the .css file for your template, then all other template categories or modules which use the template .css will be changed.

Simple RSS Feed Reader locates the .css file for formatting news feeds in a file called "mod_jw_srfr.css" which is in the modules directory off of your website's main directory.

Here is a modified portion of the mod_jw_srfr.css file which eliminates the square list-style marker inserted by Simple RSS and changes margins to use template .css list-style marker:

/* generic list styling */^M
ul.jw_srfr {margin:4px 15px;padding:0px;list-style:none;}^M
ul.jw_srfr li {margin:2px;padding:0px;border-bottom:1px dotted #ccc;}^M
/* generic link styling (fill as you see fit) */^M
ul.jw_srfr li a {margin:0px 15x}^M
ul.jw_srfr li a:hover {}^M

SportsCade and Auroa - BTW, thanks for your input!  It helped a lot.  I actually had to come back to this post (now two months later) as I forgot what was suggested for yet another template!

Thank you!
