Yeah, CSS2 doesn't have it. It should be possible in CSS3. (Same with changing the list marker to something arbitrary.) Unfortunately the CSS3 Generated Content module isn't actively edited right now. I'm hoping to get to it once Backgrounds and Borders is in CR. Depending on what exactly you want to do, you might be able to work around the problem by using :before li { display: block; } li:before { content: "[bullet]"; color: [color]; display: inline-block; width: 1em; margin-left: -1em; } but I believe this won't work in IE. ~fantasai ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
