How do I maintain text size using <li>

[Dennis Pease]

I am trying to use bullet lists in a page using <ul><li> code and it reduces the size of my text. This is an example of the current page I'm working on; http://www.dennispeaseteam.com/home-staging.php.

Is there something I can do to maintain text size & color? I tried <h4> which was close in text size but made the text red.

You could either modify the CSS file, setting a font size for unordered lists in the #text div to 12px, or you could set it inline (within the page)...

CSS File: #text ul { font-size: 12px }

or...

Inline: <ul style="font-size:12px">

I think that'll fix it for ya...

Yoyo,

I did the inline since I don't have access to the CSS. I couldn't seem to get the font exactly the same but it's a huge improvement over what I had.

Thank you,

You could also just format it to make your own list, instead of using the fancy HTML for it. i.e. put the actual bullets and formatting for it yourself. Though that of course would be a last resort.

It looks like the line height for the <p> tags are set to 18px. You could set the <ul> tags to 18px by:

<ul style="font-size:12px; line-height:18px">

Yoyo

I added the line-height:18px and that is much better. It seems like the letters are a little closer than the regular text and I added font-stretch: ultra-expanded; but it's still not quite the same.

It is however much better than what I had, and the line-height really made it look better.

Thank you,

It's your font. Add font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; and you should be good to go!

[Dennis Pease]

Perfect, that did it! Thank you everyone that helped.

Ummm I hate to come in late here - but Dennis, you do not want to be putting messy inline styles in your code if at all possible - instead, just ask the REW team to change or increase the default styles for your UL / LI in the customer service forums in the "external" style sheet - then you never have to worry about it and it will always be consistent

[Dennis Pease]

Lol, I guess I should have known to do that first. I just always want to fix things myself.

Thanks,
