I'm new to WP and no very little coding.
I have a list of white papers on my website linking to each of the white papers in HTML format. I want the white papers in the list NOT to be underlined, but when I create a link, they are automatically underlined.
Next, I tried creating the list using the "unordered list" button. I like the line spacing on this function, but the simple bullets turn into file folder icons on the live site. How can I turn those file folder icons back into round bullets or hashmarks or something easier?
this depends on the html and css of your theme,
and can best be checked if you post a link to the post/page of your site showing the problem.

Thank you. I tried but still having trouble. I think I've got the code wrong.
Below is the code that gives me the file folder icons instead of bullets. The page is at http://www.griotpartners.com/work/

try to change these styles from style.css:
.text-box ul {font-size:12px; color:#1167c5; padding:0;}
.text-box ul li {background:url(images/marker1.gif) top left no-repeat; background-position:0 3px; padding-left:26px}
to something like this:
.text-box ul {font-size:12px; color:#1167c5; padding:0; list-style-type: square; list-style-position: outside; margin-left:20px }
.text-box ul li {background:none; padding-left:0px}
(only checked in firefox; not widely tested)

That worked! (in both Explorer and Safari)
Thank you so much!
One more question. I assume I can change the color of the bullets by changing the color code from color:#1167c5 to something else. Is there an easy place to find those color codes with swatches, and is that right?
