I have a question regarding separators/placeholders. I'm looking to change the default appearance of them in my menu [ie changing it to bold or underline]. Which file would I need to edit in order to achieve that?

Since separators/placeholders are inside <span> tags you just have to find the .span class in your css file or create one and edit. e.g. <span class="separator">--</span>

css:

Code:
.separator{
font-weight: bold;
}


think that should work

I tried your suggestion but it had little affect. Looking at the page source, the only span class I could find was "mainlevel" as can be seen here.

Code:
<span class="mainlevel" >Information</span>


I tried to change the value in that but noting happened.

"Information" is what I have named the separator in the menu. Yes, it is a Joomla separator/placeholder menu type.

In template.css here is what I did.

Following this

ul li {
padding-left: 30px;
background: url(../images/bullet.gif) no-repeat 18px 8px;
line-height: 180%;

}

Add this

.separator{
font-weight: bold;
color: #990000;
line-height: 220%;
text-transform:uppercase;

}
