Can't hide bullets no matter what! (9 posts)

    It seems as though my overall WP CSS for bullets is overriding a specific style, despite the fact that I'm using list-style:none; on the specific style to hide my bullets.

    Even when I try to change list-style:none; to "disc" or some other kind of bullet, I still get the square bullets (which are default for the rest of the site) where I don't want them.

    Any help at all would be appreciated!

    Look in your sidebar.php (is this where they are?) at the <ul> / li> tags.

    Thanks for the suggestion, Samboll, but this isn't happening in my sidebar.

    Here's what I did: I'm using CSS code posted here http://johnaugust.com/archives/2004/new-css-template-for-screenplay-formatting to create a screenplay-formatted page in the middle of a blog post.

    However, where I use the "character" or "dialogue" styles, I get a bullet appearing in front of the text, even though the <ul class="screenbox"> has the list-style: none; designation on it.

    No other styles are showing the bullets; just "character" and "dialogue", and they're picking up the square bullet style from elsewhere on the site.

    If you're running WP 2.0.3 you'll need this:

    If not, I don't know what's up.
    p.s. If you have an example a link would be helpful.

    I downloaded the fix, but my bullet problem still exists. Here's an example of how it displays, using the code referenced previously: http://burbanked.com/2006/12/05/219/

    Again, thanks for taking a look at this.

    UPDATE!
    I took the test page for my issue down for a while and tried to fix it on my own, with no luck.

    Here's a new link to how my bullet problem displays: http://burbanked.com/2005/12/02/271/

    Anyone who's able to help, I'd appreciate it a lot!

    Try changing the following

    .entrybody ul li {
    list-style:square;
    }

    to

    .entrybody ul li {
    list-style:none;
    }

    .entrybody ul li {
    list-style: none; }

    too late :P

    Will that make ALL of the bullets on my site disappear, as opposed to just those used within the class designations that I'm using for the screenplay formatting?
