How can I use bullet points in a product description in order to highlight a products key features? a bullet point coppies from a word document shows as an "

In the product description use the following

!!<
<li>point 1</li>
<li>point 2</li>
>!!

this will give a bulleted list

or use ALT+0146 on the numeric keypad to insert a bullet

Thanks for that, this has however lead to a new problem best described by visiting the link below

As you can see I’ve used the <li>point 1</li> method you suggested and in order to further draw attention to the bullet points have changed the colour of the li{ in the CSS however despite closing this bit of code using </li> >!! all the text below remains yellow as if it’s still taking its style from the li{ in the CSS.

Any ideas?

Working fine in Firefox ... maybe worth trying either a <span> and </span> or define the list fully using <ul> and </ul> to surround the <li> tags

Looked fine in Firefox for me too but you might want to use a code like this instead:

!!<
<p>&bull;1<br>
<p>&bull;2<br>
<p>&bull;3<br>
>!!

I have not found any problems using this code for bullet points.
I ain't no code guru though.

Steve - should you not be closing the <p> tag at the end of the line before opening another?

Maybe, I would'nt know, but it works without anyway.

Hi
I'm using "nested" bullets.

This is the kind of coding I use..
<ul>
<li>point 1</li>
<ul><li>point 1a</li></ul>
</ul>
Is there any way to change the appearance of the bullet for point 1a?

At present the bullets appear in the same style. (Both are square bullets)
eg. http://www.cpd4lawyers.com/acatalog/...tnerships.html

I know it is something to do with the style sheet but not sure how to go about it.

Hope you can help.
Many thanks
Anne

In the actinic.css set a new class:

ul.round {
list-style-type: round;
}

in the <ul> add in <ul class="round"> to give a round bullet

That's great Jont!
I'll give it a try.
Many thanks
