CSS - Bolding First Line Of List
I want to make a list and have only the first line in bold
i tried this but it didn't work Code: ul.none{ list-style-type: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; first-line: bold; } Similar TutorialsHi everybody. I am developing a site for classic games, and I am having trouble putting a navigation list on the left of my page and aligning a heading on the right with the top of the list border. Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html lang="en"> <head> <title>Choose a Page</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <style type="text/css"> /* <![CDATA[ */ body { font-family: arial; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0; padding: 0; } h1, h2 { text-align: center; } ul { margin: 0; width: 25%; height: 20em; padding: 0; border: .5em solid #00f; list-style-type: none; list-style-position: outside; } li { background-color: #0ff; padding: .5em 0 .5em; } li a { background-color: #0f0; height: 1em; padding-left: .5em; display: block; font-weight: bold; } /* ]]> */ </style> </head> <body> <h1>Game Index</h1> <ul> <li><a>Home</a></li> <li><a href="dir.html" title="View the Directions">Directions</a></li> <li><a href="gbc.html" title="View GameBoy/GameBoy Color games">GameBoy/GB Color</a></li> <li><a href="gba.html" title="View GameBoy Advance games">GameBoy Advance</a></li> <li><a href="nes.html" title="View Nintendo/Famicom games">NES/Famicom</a></li> <li><a href="snes.html" title="View Super NES/Super Famicom games">SNES/Super Famicom</a></li> <li><a href="ggear.html" title="View Game Gear games">Game Gear</a></li> <li><a href="genesis.html" title="View Genesis MegaDrive games">Genesis/MegaDrive</a></li> <li><a href="32x.html" title="View 32X games">32X</a></li> <li><a href="psx.html" title="View PlayStation games">PlayStation</a></li> </ul> <h2>Select a page</h2> <div id="pgdesc">Please make a selection from the list above</div> <h3>Note: This page does not host ANY emulators.

I'd rather not use absolute positioning since it doesn't work well with different resolutions. I'm just wanting it to work with 800x600 and 1024x768 resolutions. Can anybody help? Below is my CSS file for list. Code: li { list-style-position: outside; } ul { list-style-position: outside; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 15; } ul ul { list-style-position: outside; list-style-type: circle; margin-left: 25px; } ol { list-style-position: outside; list-style-type: upper-alpha; } ol ol { list-style-position: outside; list-style-type: decimal; margin-left: 25px; } ol ol ol { list-style-position: outside; list-style-type: upper-alpha; margin-left: 35px; } Now, here's the problem. When I do this: Code: <b>Section Title</b> <ul><li>List 1</li> <li>List 2</li> <li>List 3</li> </ul> The result showed up like this: Section Title *List 1 *List 2 *List 3 Is there a way to not having the line break after the "Section Title"? I want it to show up like this: Section Title *List 1 *List 2 *List 3 How to I take out the extra line break? Any help is grateful! ljCharlie I'm building a navagation bar. I want to have several lists, each with a heading. Due to space and visual concerns, I would like to eliminate the blank line between the heading and each list. Here's what I have: Code: <div id="navigation"> <span class="nav_title">Archives</span> <ul> <li>[...]</li> </ul> <p> <span class="nav_title">Categories</span> <ul> <li>[...]</li> </ul> [...] </div> And this is the corresponding CSS (just the ul part, obviously): Code: #navigation ul { list-style-position: inside; list-style-type: disc; padding: 0; margin-top: 0px; padding-top: 0px; display: block; } What I have right here works, but it only works for the first list. All the other lists have a blank line between the heading and the following list -- but the first does not. I find it weird that this would work for the first time it is used, but not for the second time. I tested it by replacing the heading and list with other headings and lists and got the same result -- the *first* heading blends with the list, but the rest do not. You can view this problem here (it's in the navigation bar on the right-hand side. "Archives" blends with its list, but nothing else does.) In case you couldn't tell, I'm trying to hack out my own WordPress theme atm -- don't yell at my table layout yet, I'm converting it from another theme and haven't finished yet Hi I'm writing here after spending a few hours searching google without luck. I bought a "mega menu" plug in for wordpress but its acting very odd. It generally works as it should but ive found that theres something wrong with the formatting of the drop down menus. There is an issue where line breaks do not happen at all, and most important - list items are not shown on a new line. The content all seems to flow around its self rather than being formatted. See attached pic: img14 .imageshack .us/img14/964/screenshot047cr .png I did run the css and html though a validator and it spits out hundreds of errors but i think they are pretty much only shown because its css3. I'm really curious what would cause line breaks to not appear after list items. I had thought previously it may be the css clashing with my themes css but i tried a fresh install on a really mimimal theme and the error is still there Anyway to remove the automatic line break after list items? I'd like to use styles to create roll-over effects in a menu I've used an unordered list to create that menu. But, I'd like a horizontal menu bar rather than a vertical menu column. Thanks! David Goldfeder Greetings, I have a class called "header" and I am trying to give it a touch of extra space between it and the next line. All of my headers are just a few words and thus on one line. I tried placing "line-height: 1.5em" in my "header" class and it shows up correctly in Dreamweaver but not in IE. My thought is, because it is only a single line, that class value does not kick in because there is no second line for that class. Is there a way to conrol this in CSS or am I going to have to resort to using a....gulp.....spacer? Thanks in advance! Greetings, I am relatively new to CSS and am using background image bullets. Problem is, in the case of a two line link, the bullet aligns in between the two lines and I need it to align to the top line. Below is the CSS, and attached is a screenshot of the link to better illustrate my predicament. Thanks for any help! li { list-style-type: none; background: url(../images/bullet.gif) no-repeat left; padding: 0 0 0 10px; } I've got two lines of text. Want the spacing the two lines to increase, so I set a line-height. When I do this, not only does it increase space between the two lines, it also increases spacing above the first line (and maybe below the second). How can I increase spacing between the two lines only, without increasing above and below? Thanks! Seems like most people use unordered lists for menus. Code: <ul> <li>menu1</li> <li>menu2</li> <li>menu3</li> </ul> Others use definition lists. They claim it is less buggy with IE. Code: <dl> <dt>menu1</dt> <dt>menu2</dt> <dt>menu3</dt> </dl> Any thoughts on whether unordered lists or definition lists are best? Also, I sometimes see the menu text surrounded by a SPAN tag. I believe this has to do with only being able to assign one attribute to an element, but am uncertain. Can anyone help explain? Also, if I want a single HTML to work with various CSS, is it a good idea to always include the SPAN tag? Code: <ul> <li><span>menu1</span></li> <li><span>menu2</span></li> <li><span>menu3</span></li> </ul> Thanks I have a list that I've created with the list-style-type being an image. For some reason, the space between the list-style-image and the list text differs in IE and Firefox. Has this happened to anyone else, or am I doing something incorrectly? Below is the code. The cell that these lists sit in has has an id of 'cellid'. Code: #cellid { margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0; } #cellid ul { margin: 10px 0 0 20px; padding: 0 0; } #cellid li { margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0; list-style-image: url(images/idxyellowlist.gif); } The ul has a margin of 20px on the left to line up with an element above it. Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get around this space? Thanks, Brian Hi, Have an unordered list which I use as a menu. I have set the list-style-type property to none because I don't want any bullets or anything. When I look at the menu within a bordered div, it seems like there is a margin to the left of the <ul>. Eventhough there are no bullets in the <ul>, the <li> are still placed at the same location from the left. How can I left adjust the unordered list so that there are no visible margin at the left side? /Hubba Bubba Hi I have a vertical menu containing main and subcategories. subcats are hidden, when a main cat is clicked then subcats are displayed, all is done with css no javascript. here is the structure, Code: <ul id="nav"> <li class="level item-1 nav-clothes active parent"> <a href="/clothes.html"><span>Clothes</span></a> <ol class="level item-1"> <li class="level1 nav-clothes-shirts"> <a href="/clothes/shirts.html"><span>Shirts</span></a> </li> <li class="level1 nav-clothes-tanks"> <a href="/clothes/tanks.html"><span>Tanks</span></a> </li> <li class="level1 nav-clothes-raincoats"> <a href="/clothes/raincoats.html"><span>Raincoats</span></a> </li> <li class="level1 nav-clothes-dresses"> <a href="/clothes/dresses.html"><span>Dresses</span></a> </li> <li class="level1 nav-clothes-swimsuits"> <a href="/clothes/swimsuits.html"><span>Swimsuits</span></a> </li> <li class="level1 nav-clothes-outerwear last"> <a href="/outerwear.html"><span>Outerwear</span></a> </li> </ol></li> <li class="level item-2 nav-beds parent"> <a href="/beds.html"><span>Beds</span></a> here is my all related css, external css file, Code: #nav { font-size:13.5px; color:#000; padding:0 0 0 0; margin:-20px 0 0 0; width:100%;} /* All Levels */ #nav li { text-align:left; } #nav li.over { z-index:999; } #nav a, #nav a:hover { display:block; line-height:1.3em; text-decoration:none; } #nav span { display:block; cursor:pointer; white-space:nowrap; } #nav li ul span {white-space:normal; } #nav li li.parent {} /* 0 Level */ #nav li { clear:both; position:relative; display:block; } #nav li.active a { color:#000; text-decoration:underline; } #nav a { float:left; padding:2px 14px 11px 0px; color:#000; font-weight:bold; } #nav li.over a, #nav a:hover { color:#000; text-decoration:underline; } #nav .item-1 ul a { background:url(../images/arr_sub_menu.gif) 0 9px no-repeat; padding:0 0 0 0; color:#1A1616;} #nav .item-2 ul a {padding:0 0 0 0; color:#1A1616;} #nav .item-3 ul a {padding:0 0 0 0; color:#1A1616;} #nav .item-4 ul a {padding:0 0 0 0; color:#1A1616;} #nav .item-5 ul a {padding:0 0 0 0; color:#1A1616;} #nav .item-6 ul a {padding:0 0 0 0; color:#1A1616;} #nav .item-7 ul a {padding:0 0 0 0; color:#1A1616;} #nav .item-8 ul a {padding:0 0 0 0; color:#1A1616;} #nav .item-9 ul a {padding:0 0 0 0; color:#1A1616;} #nav ul li a { padding:0 0 0 0;} #nav ul li a:hover { padding:0 0 0 0; text-decoration:none;} /* 1st Level */ #nav ul li, #nav ul li.active { float:none; margin:0; padding:6px 0 0 29px; background:#FFFFFF; border-left:1px solid #E8E7E7; border-right:1px solid #E8E7E7; } #nav ul li.over {} #nav ul li.last { background:#FFFFFF; padding-bottom:15px; } #nav ul a, #nav ul a:hover { float:none; padding:0;} #nav ul li a { font-weight:normal !important; } /* 2nd level */ #nav ul { position:absolute; width:199px; top:23px; left:-10000px; background:url(../images/bg_sub_menu.gif) 0 0 no-repeat; padding:23px 0 0 0; border-bottom:1px solid #E8E7E7; margin-left:100px; } /* 3rd+ Level */ #nav ul ul { top:5px; background:none; padding-top:0; border-top:1px solid #E8E7E7; } /* Show Menu */ #nav li.over > ul { left:0; } #nav li.over > ul li.over > ul { left:100px; } #nav li.over ul ul { left:-10000px; } #nav ul li a { background:url(../images/arr_sub_menu.gif) 0 9px no-repeat; padding:0 0 0 0; color:#1A1616; } #nav ul li a:hover { color:#1A1616 !important; } #nav ul span, #nav ul li.last li span { padding:3px 15px 4px 15px; } #nav li ul { display:none; } #nav li:hover ul{display: block; } #nav ol { margin-left:5px; margin-bottom:10px; } #nav ol li { padding-left:15px; background-image:url(../images/ol_bg_lines.gif); font-size:12px; font-weight:normal; } #nav ol li.last { background-image:url(../images/ol_bg_lines_last.gif); } inline css code to overwrite the default behavior for target page Code: ul#nav {margin : 0 10px; margin-bottom:0px;} ul#nav li {height : 14px; margin-top : 5px;} ul#nav li a, ul#nav li a:hover {} ul#nav ul {margin-top : -8px; background : url(/images/drop-ul-bgr.gif) no-repeat; } ul#nav ul li {height : auto; margin-top : auto;} ul#nav ol li a { padding:0px; } ul#nav ol li { margin:0px; padding:5px 0 5px 15px; } ul#nav ol { border:#ccc 1px solid; padding-bottom:30px; } I am attaching a screenshot to explain the problem, i have given border to the OL to explain the problem. In the screenshot the pink arrow is pointing the place, BEFORE BEDS, where i want to give more space but the child list keeps overlapping rather than pushing the parent list downwards. any help is much appreciated I am really stuck with this. Hi, I have an OL list (the numbered one) and the horz gap between the list item number (as automatically generated by OL) and the text of the LI is too big (according to client). Looks fine in FF but is bigger alright on IE (ahem naturally .....) I've played with the CSS for both the OL & LI styles even setting all margins and paddings to 0 but without effect on the gap. Is there any way to style that gap? Code below. Kevin <ol class="most_read"> <li class="most_read_li">Apples</li> <li class="most_read_li">Oranges</li> </ol> .most_read { text-align:left; color:#808080; font-size:10px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight:normal; margin-left:30px; padding:0px; margin-top:5px; } .most_read_li { margin-bottom:7px; margin-right:7px; } Hi I am creating a navigation bar using unsorted list and CSS. I have given my CSS and HTML code here Code: #navcontainer { width: 200px; margin-top:150px; } #navcontainer ul#navlist { width:200px; clear:left; text-align:left; margin-left:0; padding-left:0; list-style:none; font-size: 12px; font-weight:bold; line-height: 14px; } #navcontainer ul#navlist li { margin-left:0; padding: 0px; display: block; list-style:none; border-bottom: 1px solid gray; } #navcontainer ul#navlist li.last { border-right: 0; background:none; } a.linkText { padding: 10px; display: block; color : #444444; font-family : arial; font-size : 11px; font-weight : bold; text-decoration : none; height:25px; } a.linkText:link { color : Aqua; /* you can define other styles if necessary */ } a.linkText:visited { color : Maroon; /* you can define other styles if necessary */ } a.linkText:hover { color : Blue; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="navcontainer"> <ul id="navlist"> <li><a class="linkText" href="#">Item One</a></li> <li><a class="linkText" href="#">Item two</a></li> <li><a class="linkText" href="#">Item three</a></li> <li><a class="linkText" href="#">Item four</a></li> <li><a class="linkText" href="#">Item five</a></li> </ul> </div> The problem is, when I select the next list item, previously selected list item should come to the original color. Is there any way I can achieve this? Your guidence will be appreciated. Many thanks Hi all, How to go to next line if the width of the content is more than specified width? Thanx/Chandar Thanks for taking the time to read my question I have a row of pictures as nav links, and under them I want to put a row of text stating what each link is Picture Picture Picture Picture Text Text Text Text Each pic is 52px wide, so I made the containers for the text 52px wide. both have left and right margins of 10px (I made the .NavText margin 11 to compensate for the 1px border) yet they don't line up!! What am I missing?

Just as you see it above, I'd like that all on one line, but can't seem to figure out how to do it. Driving me nuts. Anyone? The CSS code controlling that is Code: .alignright { text-align: center; display: inline; } .alignleft { text-align: center; display: inline; } Thanks! Chris Hello, I use always use the <br /> tag and I just found out in using the clearing of divs like; Code: <div style="clear:both; margin-top:5px"></div> for next line or breaking of line. Is this a good thing to use? i have a series of divs that look like this Code: <div> <div></div> <div></div> </div> <div> <div></div> <div></div> </div> Each of the inner divs use the float attribute but when it comes to the second outer div it doesnt automatically go onto the next line it sort of continues from where the last div left off. Why is this... There must be a better way to accomplish this... I need a line break between the two headers in the page below. As it stands it works in Firefox and IE with <br> tags but this seems sloppy.....Is this what the clear element is for?
