CSS list help needed. Most likely a simple fix.

Hello, I am having a small issue with a list on my site. I have a list and when the text wraps to the next line it goes under the bullet point rather than inline with the first line of text. Can someone help me get it inline with the first line of text. I think I need to use list-style-position: outside; but I can't get it to work.

- See the image attached for what is happening.



The list is in a sidebar with the id = "sidebar"

Here is the css for the page:

Code (markup):

 

Is it possible to simplify your problem as HTML section and respective CSS sections only?
It is most likely that you're overriding list-style-position somewhere but it's hard to really search through your CSS.

 

This would be a lot easier if you just linked to the live site, where we (or you! ) can use debugging tools to see all the CSS definitions at a glance.

But this is a text-wrapping issue. It doesn't sound at all like you're overriding list-style-position, which frankly doesn't appear to be related.

Your issue is that whatever is containing this UL is not wide enough to accommodate the text. Increase the width and you should see that it won't wrap anymore. However, that isn't a permanent or necessarily good solution - how can you account for various text size/DPI settings, and so on? It would be better if you didn't define what I suspect is a fixed pixel width here. Make use of a % width with min/max-width in ems, or just fix-width in terms of ems, with the font size also in em.

That *should* be more sound.

Granted, probably nobody is going to stop you from just increasing the px and leaving it at that. Given the overall look of your CSS, that might be the fastest and most straightforward 'solution', even if it isn't a real one.

 

@HBz
I think what he means is like:

* | Lorem ipsum dolor
  | sit amet.

Code (markup):

Rather than him now having:

* | Lorem ipsum dolor
sit amet.

Code (markup):

Which can be done by setting list-style-position property to 'outside' or 'inside'

 

Oh - my bad. You are probably correct. I read it as "on the same line as the first line", oops.

 

Hey guys, thanks for the replies. Yes, I may have not explained it as well as I could have, but HNC-Web is correct. Any idea how to do that? I have tried but it doesn't seem to be working as there are so many nests of ul and li.

 

@fadetoblack22
Is it possible that you output the html mark-up for your list along with it's wrapper?

 

Aye, CSS without the HTML it's applied to may as well be gibberish for all the help we can 'give' you -- and as others said a live copy of the site would be far, FAR more enlightening.

Much less some formatting on that CSS instead of the painfully difficult to work with 'stuff everything onto one line' rubbish. I can't even figure out where you're setting the padding to place that image into in the first place!

 

Hi guys, the reason I didn't put a live copy of the page is because the pages aren't indexed yet and I have had things copied before, so I'm being very careful.

It's a popular wordpress theme: delicate. All the formatting was done by the author.

This is what outputs the list in my first post:

   <div id="sidebar" class="profile">
     <ul>
		<li id="widget_recent_entries" class="widget png_scale">		<h2 class="blocktitle"><span>Recent fat loss articles</span></h2>		<ul>
				<li><a href="http://site.com/" title="">title 1 </a></li>
				<li><a href="http://site.com/" title="">title 2 </a></li>
				</ul>
		</li><li id="widget_categories" class="widget png_scale"><h2 class="blocktitle"><span>Weight loss Topics</span></h2>		<ul>
	<li class="cat-item cat-item-4"><a href="http://www.site.com/category/build-muscle" title="View all posts filed under Build muscle">Build muscle</a>
</li>
	<li class="cat-item cat-item-6"><a href="http://www.site.com.com/category/lose-fat" title="View all posts filed under Lose fat">Lose fat</a>
</li>
	<li class="cat-item cat-item-5"><a href="http://www.site.com.com/category/lose-weight" title="View all posts filed under Lose weight">Lose weight</a>
</li>
	<li class="cat-item cat-item-3"><a href="http://www.site.com/category/nutrition" title="View all posts filed under Nutrition">Nutrition</a>
</li>
		</ul>
</li> 
</ul>   </div>    

<div class="clear"></div>   

<div class="bottomoffer">

<div class="bofferimage">
<a href="http://site.com/wp-content/themes/delicate/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://site.com/wp-content/themes/delicate/images/siteimages/></a>
</div>

Code (markup):

 

add this to your CSS:

#widget_recent_entries li li a, #widget_categories li li a {
background:url(images/bullet.png) no-repeat 0 50%;
max-width: 300px; /* max width of text on the sidebar */
line-height: 1.4;
}

Code (markup):

Regards,

 

Hello, thanks for the reply. I added this code to the css and it doesn't seem to be working. Nothing changes...

 

Actually it's rather simple.

wordpress. org/extend/themes/delicate (delete space, I'm not allowed to post links)

Is that the theme you're using? I didn't read through whole CSS because I know that issue with this theme.

Add this line:

[LIST]
[*][COLOR=#C80000]display[/COLOR]: block;
[/LIST]

Code (markup):

to #sidebar .widget ul li a
or any other "a" element that you want to move to right

Last line of the code should be added, to be displayed as a block, instead of plain text. Please let me know if it doesn't work on my PM

 

That worked perfectly! Thanks!
