Bullet points not appearing correctly

    Hi,

    I have great faith that someone out there can fix this:

    This has only become a recent problem, i.e. the last two blogs articles that I posted.

    The most recent being http://edenchanges.wordpress.com/2011/02/07/feisty-february/ which illustrates the problem nicely.

    I’ve put a couple of bullet pointed lists into the blog and they appear on my screen to be correct but when previewed or published the bullets are appearing above the lines they relate to.

    I typed the blog directly into wordpress so there are no lingering html issues from Word or anywhere else.

    The code that appears when I view it is (and this is a straight cut and paste) – I’m a total novice with html so it looks fine to me but there must be something funky about it – please help!

    Thanks Stephen

    Heres the code:

    • <div style=”text-align: left;”>If you had to work the entire year only with the people you have currently how likely is it that you would hit all your targets?</div>
    • <div style=”text-align: left;”>Who within the team has the capacity to mentor other members and which members would benefit from some mentoring?</div>
    • <div style=”text-align: left;”>If you had to lose one person from your team who would you pick?</div>
    • <div style=”text-align: left;”>What or who do you need to add to your team to achieve your vision of where you want to be at the end of 2011? (NB: not your goals but your vision)</div>
    • <div style=”text-align: left;”>Who started in January and could do with more support/further training?</div>

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    First of all the div style text align left stuff is not needed so you need to delete them and the ending div tags as well.

    There are issues that staff need to fix with the order and unordered list CSS. There is no sense in me working through it since they have to fix it.

    Contact staff directly at http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/

    I’ll also tag this for their attention and have it moved to the themes forum.

    I should have clarified, remove the div text align stuff in the unordered list.

    I’ll go ahead and post this here for staff in case they come around. What needs to be done is the ul li and ol li stuff needs to be separated out as below.

    .post .content ul li {
list-style-position: outside;
margin-left: 20px;
}
.post .content ol li {
list-style-position: inside;
padding-left: 20px;
}

    Hi,

    I have to confess I don’t understand your answers however I have done as you suggested and contacted the staff so thank you for that. I also sent them a link to your answer above which I guess will make sense to someone of a more technical nature than I.

    Thank you for your time responding. I much appreciate it.

    Regards

    Stephen
