safari unordered lists--margin left

Sent by webmaster on 24 October 2005 20:08


Hi there Reese,

I'm pretty new to CSS AND I don't have a MAC to test this on. I'll just put
it out and take my lumps as they come.

I put a margin-right on the feature box (the box floated left) and removed
the left-margin on the li (margin-left: 0;). It still worked on all the
windows browsers I looked at -- but then, of course, the page you put up
looked great on those browsers, too :-). So, not to waste your time but if
there's not an obvious reason to reject my solution out of hand, give it a
try. If there IS a reason to reject it off the top, I'd appreciate the
lesson!

Subject: [css-d] safari unordered lists--margin left

Hi there,

I'm working on this site: (this page, specifically)
http://www.lindaformichelli.com/renegade/

And first, I apologize if you check out the css. It's a bit of a mess 
and I still have to organize it more neatly as well as tweak some other 
things. However, my issue at hand is the bullet points you see on that 
page near the top are wonky in Safari 1.3.1.

Basically, the "margin-left" I've applied to li like this isn't applying 
in Safari:

li {
list-style-type: disc;
list-style-position: outside;
margin-bottom: 3px;
margin-left: 30px;
}

I've tried cranking that number up even higher (e.g. to 60px) to no 
avail. In Safari 1.3.1, it's not applying at all. The bullets are 
running into my box on the left. FYI that box on the left is floated 
left. You can see a screenshot of this phenomenon here:

I've also tried using padding, but that didn't give me the result I 
seek. Any suggestions on how I might get these bullets to scooch over 
for Safari?

Thanks much,
Reese
