One option for you is self experimentation, which is my favorite way
to figure something out. Create a blank index.php page for your
template, and only have the base XHTML to start with. Then, add the
PHP code for Joomla to render the one module position that has your
menu in it - and nothing more. Then you can write a simple CSS file
that works specifically with that markup.

Sounds simplistic, but if you are trying to figure out something that
doesn't make sense, I've learned that making things as painfully
simple as possible speeds up the understanding ;-)
