The bullets on my list items disappear when I convert them to columns using CSS3. Any ideas why or suggestions on how to correct it?
See the example: http://jsfiddle.net/gduDm/1/
ul li {
list-style-type: disc !important;
column-break-inside: avoid;
}
ul {
list-style-type: disc !important;
margin-top: 1em;
column-count: 2;
column-gap: 0.5em;
}
I think the bullets are there, but they're being rendered to the left of the viewing area. Try:
list-style-position: inside;
Adding both padding-left
and a negative text-indent
to the list elements seems to produce the desired result:
ul li {
padding-left: 1em;
text-indent: -1em;
}
ul {
list-style: inside disc;
}

Alternatively, add a margin-left
to the list element (instead of the list) and use outside
bullets:
ul li {
margin-left: 1em;
}
ul {
list-style: outside disc;
}

Setting margin-left:1em
makes the bullets appear without messing with the text indentation.
After trying the first answer here, I was having issues with my list items spilling onto a second row and not lining up. Using column-gap
I was able to move the second column over and see the bullets.
