I have a menu system where when you click on a link, sub-headings will slide down beneath them. I have this fine, however I want to add an arrow, set as a background image to list items, that animatedly rotates 90 degrees when active. So, my question is as follows: How can I transform (rotate) a background image without rotating the whole list item?

Cheers,
BlackWraith

    I don’t think you can just rotate the background-image by itself.
    What you have to do is declare another <span style="display:block;width:16px;height:16px; background:url(my_arrow.png);"> element inside your <li> and then rotate the whole <span>.

    Usually people just use a single sprite and background-position to change the arrow from ► to ▼ in nested lists.
