Aha, that's why. I swiped the text from one of thefulcrum's test posts on LJ because there were a lot of styling elements there ad I didn't have time to write my own. I will definitely change that entry once customizations are done.

Would it be possible to have a list inside a table, and not have bullets? (And of course, cellspacing and cellpadding!)

No need; like I said, it's easier to have colors separate for someone who just wants to try out different colors -they just look for Images and colors ad replace that part. Makes perfect sense. Is it possible to have two people submit the same layout as a theme layer? Because I'm sure I saw it at dreamscapes. Yes, here.

Nesting I will definitely need for a future post listing art supplies, references and stock photos I use. I figure if I make myself post (somewhat) regularly, I might actually (gasp!) improve my skills. :)

I don't know, but it's not the same theme. I coded it from scratch, so it's not a problem.

If you would like the bullets to not show up, your best bet is probably inline styles. <ul style="list-style-type:none">

The lack of ability to nest is definitely a problem and I'll fix it when I make it a theme. ♥

That's good then; it's always a good thing to have more choices rather than less.

I think I've reached my final questions before I try my hand at custom layers and themes for the other edit:

- I just added some differently styled ordered lists from W3schools, but they all show as the same type. Is there something in the css that's causing that? - How would I reduce the line spacing for lists?

I think that's it, at least for the time being. :crosses fingers:

sorry i keep doing that orz

That's not my CSS, that's Dreamwidth!

The type declaration has been deprecated, so use CSS instead.

<ol style="list-style-type: lower-latin">

like that.

Well dang it, Dreamwidth! OK, I'll have to keep that in a document somewhere. Perhaps I'll make a "styled elements" private post from where I can copy these codes. :(

Or, would I be able to add that to the css box and then apply to individual lists as needed?
