A while back[1], I attempted to substitute a heart entity for the normal
list bullet, (a) so I could change its color on :hover, and (b) so that
it sized with the text. I used :before for modern browsers, and some
scripting for IE.

If that method works for you, feel free to use the script etc..

It was hardly, umm, bullet-proof.
