I observed a relative strange behavior when I use floating images in a document. The list items indentation is made relatively to the 'red line' instead of the 'green' one.
Why is this happening and can I solve this?
<img style="float: left">
<p>some text</p>
<ul>
<li>aaa</li
<li>bbb</li
</ul>
<p>some other text</p>
Just add ul { list-style-position: inside; }
because by default it is set to outside, not sure why.
I think you probably need to change the list style position to inside
.
Combination answer of a few things I managed to dig up to make this work.
HTML:
<div>
<img src="bleh.jpg">
<ul>
<li>This is a test of something with something to do something</li>
<li>This is a test of something with something to do something</li>
<li>This is a test of something with something to do something</li>
</ul>
</div>
LESS:
img {
float: left;
}
ul {
list-style-position: inside;
li {
position: relative;
left: 1em;
margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: -1em;
padding-left: 1em;
text-indent: -1em;
}
}
This worked for me, from: http://enarion.net/news/2012/css-perfect-indented-line-ulli-around-a-floating-image/
Chrome, Firefox etc:
ul { list-style-position:inside; margin-left: 2px; display: table; }
ul li {margin-left: 13px; text-indent: -12px; }
Internet Explorer:
<!--[if IE]>
<style>ul li {margin-left: 19px; text-indent: -18px; }</style>
