Putting a span into the LI for Drupal

[elementalgrace]

Hello,I recently installed Drupal as a CMS and am in the process of skinning the gallery module. The individual photos are displayed as an unordered list and I have managed to style them more or less the way I want with one exception. I want the content of each list item to be vertically aligned to the bottom of each list item but the vertical-align property does not apply to block level elements such as list items apparently. So to achieve this, I need to insert an inline element such as a span inside the li. I have managed to play about with some of the PHP in regard to other design issues to achieve what I want but my grasp of the subject is rudimentary at best and no matter what I try I can't get the span to display inside the li. I can get it outside the li without many problems though (!) ... Anyway I was rather hoping that if I posted the code, someone might be able to give me a bit of guidance as to how to achieve it.PHP

  if (!empty($images)) {    $content .= '<ul class="images">';    foreach ($images as $image) {      $content .= theme('image_gallery_img', $image, $size);    }$content .= "</ul>\n";  }

The Code The PHP Generates

<ul class="images"><li><a href="/drupal-5.3/?q=node/45"><img src="http://192.168.1.20/drupal-5.3/files/images/IMG_1274.thumbnail.JPG" alt="in heaven there is no beer" title="in heaven there is no beer"  class="image image-thumbnail " width="90" height="68" /></a><b class="imgbox"><a href="/drupal-5.3/?q=node/45">in heaven there is no beer</a></b><div class="author">Posted by: <a href="/drupal-5.3/?q=user/1" title="View user profile.">admin</a></div></li></ul>

The Code I want to achieve

<ul class="images"><li><span class="imglist"><a href="/drupal-5.3/?q=node/45"><img src="http://192.168.1.20/drupal-5.3/files/images/IMG_1274.thumbnail.JPG" alt="in heaven there is no beer" title="in heaven there is no beer"  class="image image-thumbnail " width="90" height="68" /></a><b class="imgbox"><a href="/drupal-5.3/?q=node/45">in heaven there is no beer</a></b><div class="author">Posted by: <a href="/drupal-5.3/?q=user/1" title="View user profile.">admin</a></div></span></li></ul>

You'll have to find the definition for the theme() function and modify it. Don't forget to look in included files too.

I can find that but I don't know how to modify it - that's what I was asking for help with! When I try adding in the span class it appears outside the LI rather than inside it and I don't know enough PHP to force it to do what I want it to.

Well... post the function here and we'll have a look.

Thanks for the offer - didn't see it 'til now After much head scratching and burning out my internal swear filter I worked out that I was actually looking at the wrong bit of code and there was a separate bit that controlled the li and the content within the li. What a dummy, eh?Thanks again...

Lol correct! The inline bit you posted controls the content outside the LI, but the theme() function defines the list-item markup displayed.
