list-style-image gets deleted
-
Hi,
everytime I try to use “list-style-image” to replace a list bullet point with an image, the whole style gets deleted by wordpress when I try to save the custom css. Is the CSS command “list-style-image” blocked by wordpress and if so, why?tina

i can’t think why wordpress would strip that out, i can’t imagine that it’s a security risk.
however, it’s generally more reliable to do the following:
li {
list-style-type: none;
padding: 2px 2px 2px 8px;
background: url(http://path.to/your/image.jpg) 0 50% no-repeat;
} -

Style tags are stripped for security reasons. That’s how that MySpace worm got in. That’s probably what is occuring here.

drmike –

thanks sunburntkam – it worked, with just a small modification. Here is what I did:
#subcontent ul.categories li,#subcontent ul.months li {
list-style-image:none;
background:url('http://my.website.com/categories_yellow.gif') left no-repeat;
margin:0;
padding:0 0 0 18px;
}It strange though … I can use list-style-image:none; but I cant use
list-style-image:url(‘url’);thanks for your help :) much appreciated

Yes, I did and I already looked at the CSS file in question. No reason to be rude. Did you notice I said ‘probably’ in there?
I sent in a Feedback asking about the situation. I had thought it might be an oversite with the filters but if ‘list-style-image:none;’ is working…

hi drmike,
thanks for looking anyway! would be really interesting if you could find out why list-style-image seems to be blocked with a url … well if you have time :) -
Hi fitzel. Sorry about the problem! It’s fixed now. I just tested with this lovely and flattering rule:
li { list-style-image: url(/favicon.ico); };-)
