I have an odd occurrence on a website I'm working on. I honestly wish I
could post the link to it, but I'm under an NDA, so I can't. I'm hoping
this is a common problem that you all will know the answer to, and thus slap
me with the stupid stick as you spit out the answer to me. (A little spit's
okay, as long as I get an answer!)
I *will* say this: my list items in my stylesheet are *very*
specific...meaning I didn't just go ul{stuff here}, I went #div p.class
ul.class {stuff here} - seriously specific, and my defaults were as general
as possible - so I know that the code I show you is honestly specific to the
issue at hand.
So, here's the thing. I have some of my list items set with the bullets
replaced by an image. In IE - and in IE *only* - the images will appear and
disappear. Sometimes they load fine the first time, but if you open a
screen of any kind over the browser window, they disappear. If you reload,
they come back. Sometimes when you load the first time, half of them show
up - the other half are gone - but a reload brings them back. It's very
random.
I'm wondering if I can do something in my CSS to prevent this from
happening - or if it's just an IE bug? (then they'll just have to live with
it.)
My list code (as I said, specific to these bullets - so what you see is what
it is):
#left ul { margin:0 20px 0 20px;
width:150px;}
#left li, #subhead_left li, #subhead_right li {
list-style-image:url("../images/arrow.gif");
font-size:0.9em;
color:#222;}
Would it help if I got rid of the list-style-image things and just said
"none" and went the background route? Is it that I didn't specify
list-style-type as none first? Or, is it just another reason to validate
the fact that IE sucks?
Any help would be appreciated. :)
