The <ul></ul> tags are what is responsible for indentation among list items. So, you'd need to wrap the <ul> tag around any <li> tags in order to get the inner indentation that you're looking for. Of course, they'll also cause a space before and after the list itself, which may have been what you were trying to avoid.
If that is true, then you have to choose: Use <ul> and accept the space; Don't use <ul> and accept the out-dentation; create nested tables and a bullet graphic to force the issue. There might be a fourth option, to use CSS and somehow make your magic work, but that one is beyond me. -Patti > Morning, > > Got a list problem that's driving me crazy!
