 I want the marker centered on the first line of list-item text.

 What do you think?


Not knowing the precise construction and what rules are already applied for 
each element I dare say that the first example could be how it looks in IE when 
the li has hasLayout [1] since it has a width?? though I not sure since that 
usually results in the list item being adjacent to the last line.

One solution is wrapping the ul with a div and applying the width to this 
element instead or by giving the ul a width and giving a margin-left to each 
li. This is seen in example 3 on this test page [2] by Bruno Fassino. Other 
solutions are also on this test page.

I want the marker centered on the first line of list-item text.



The basic idea is as follows:


  ul
{
list-style-type: none;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}

li
{
background-image: url(bullet.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
padding-left: 15px;
}

replacing the image url and padding-left with suitable values.



http://css.maxdesign.com.au/listutorial/01.htm

gives a step by step explanation, expanding on the basic idea to 
reintroduce spacing, right alignment and other variations.

Too many ways to create a list with list-item markers, and too many
problems that can ruin it. That in addition to that there are more than
one way to fix each combination of lists / problems, and it all depends
on which browser / browser-version that needs a fix.

Have you got a live link to your attempt, so we can see what to fix in
your particular case? No mail-attachments will make it to css-d alive.

Georg

PS: break it yourself, ASAP, so you can learn how to fix it before
someone else break it for you :-)

  background-position: left;
means the same as
  background-position: left center;

if you want it to be at a specific position you must tell it so; i.e.
  background-position: 0 0.6ex;
I didn't find any explicit line-height so '0.6ex' is more or less 
centered at the first line in my configuration; you should define an 
explicit line-height for better results.

The addition of...

li.body {background-position: 0 .4em;}

...will center it quite nicely on first line.
