I have removed small dots in ul > li by css style:
li{list-style:none;}
But there are some small dot in <li>tag now. How can I remove them. I have searched a lot and used li,ul{display:block; list-style:none; list-style-type:none; .....} too. But nothing worked. Inspecting elements was not helpful. Would you please help me remove these blue small dots?
You are using correct css but you have applied it on li tag, It should be on ul tag.
Use following css:
ul{list-style:none;}
You can remove bullets by setting the list-style-type to none on the CSS for the element, for example
ul
{
list-style-type: none;
}
You might also want to add padding:0; margin:0; to that, if you want to remove indentation as well.
See Listutorial for a great walkthrough of list formatting techniques.
Remove it by making it a link(a tag) and then disable the link if don't want it.Maybe an indirect way would help

I have a CSS problem on this page: http://www.fastclickad.com/ask-for-your-free-seo-analysis/
For some reason, bullets still show although I inserted in the style sheet several instructions so the list styles don't inherit from the theme.
When I "inspect element" with google Chrome everything seems to go smooth, except the bullets still show!
Can you help me?
You have a border specified which, if removed, prevents the arrow:
.aritclecontent ul li::before, .sidebarwidget ul li::before {
border-left: solid #0473B2;
}
So you'll need to do something like:
.gform_body ul li:before {
border-left:none!important;
}
The !important could be frowned upon, so you might wish to analyse your styles and refactor accordingly to remove the need for using it, if indeed it is necessary.
try this ..
list-style-type: none;
I'm fighting with CSS and can't figure out how to remove bullets. Yeah, I know this sounds easy, but hear me out. I have another external CSS file from our corporate office that has styles that are getting in the way and I can't for the life of me figure out how to override them. I've tried the !important token and it doesn't work either. I'm using chrome and the inspector hasn't yet helped me figure out what's causing it. Anyway, here's my code which works great stand-alone, but once I put the corporate CSS file in there, the stupid bullets come back. Ugh!
<ul style="list-style-type:none;">
<li>First</li>
<li>Second</li>
<li>Third</li>
</ul>
This sounds like more of an issue with CSS specificity. You can't "override" the other styles, per se, you can merely create additional styles which are more specific. Without knowing what the other CSS looks like, there are generally three ways to do this:
Inline styles
Exactly like you have in your example. These are most specific, so they're guaranteed to work, but they're also guaranteed to be a pain in the neck to work with. Generally, if you're using these, something needs to be fixed.
Add an id attribute to the unordered list,
Then use the id as a selector in your CSS. Using an id as a selector is more specific than using a class or an element type. It's a useful tool for cutting through a bunch of styling that you might be inheriting from somewhere else.
<ul id="the-one">
<li>First</li>
<li>Second</li>
<li>Third</li>
</ul>
ul#the-one {
list-style-type: none;
}
Wrap all of your HTML in a div with the id attribute set.
This is what I usually do. It allows me to use that div with it's id in my CSS styles to make sure my styles always take precedence. Plus, it means I only have to choose one meaningful id name, then I can just style the rest of my HTML as I normally would. Here's an example:
<div id="wrapper">
<ul>
<li>First</li>
<li>Second</li>
<li>Third</li>
</ul>
<p>Some text goes here</p>
</div>
div#wrapper ul {
list-style-type: none;
}
div#wrapper p {
text-align: center;
}
Using that technique is a pretty good way to make sure that you spend most of your time working on your own styles and not trying to debug somebody else's. Of course, you have to put div#wrapper at the beginning of each of your styles, but that's what SASS is for.
I had the same problem, I was trying to change the CSS for a joomla website, and finally found that the li had a background image that was a bullet... (the template was JAT3). This is the code:
.column ul li {
background: url(../images/bullet.gif) no-repeat 20px 7px;
...
}
Hope it helps someone.
Ensure the rule you're trying to override is on the UL, rather than the LI. I've seen that rule applied to LIs, and overriding the UL as you have above would have no effect.
My situation is similar to the one described by #fankoil: my inherited css had
main-divname ul li{
background-image:url('some-image.png');
}
to get rid of this for a specific ul, I gave the ul an id
<ul id="foo">
...
and in the css, turned off background image for this particular ul
ul#foo li {
background-image: none !important;
}
So to add some clarification to some previous answers:
list-style-type is on ul
background-image in on li
It's better if instead of having the style inline you call it using a class:
<ul class="noBullets">
.noBullets {
list-style-type:none !important;
}
If you can't find the style that's overwriting yours, you can use the !important property. It's better to first inspect your code online using chrome or firefox's Inspect element (or firebug).
EDIT:
Accordnig to your comment, the style comes from div#wrapper ul. Did you try:
div#wrapper ul {
list-style-type:none !important;
}
The Trick is very simple:
HTML get that:
<ul id="the-one">
<li>First</li>
<li>Second</li>
<li>Third</li>
</ul>
Style get that:
ul#the-one {list-style-type: none;}
But, the next two options will blow your mind:
li {width: 190px; margin-left: -40px;} // Width here is 190px for the example.
We limit the width and force the li paragraph to move left!

Good question; it's odd how the bullets show in IE even with the list-style:none;
This is the code that removed the bullets:
/* media query only applies style to IE10 and IE11 */
#media all and (-ms-high-contrast: none), (-ms-high-contrast: active) {
/* removes bullets in list items for IE11*/
li {
list-style-position: outside;
overflow: hidden;
}
}
check for the following line of code in your css:
.targeted-class-name>ul>li>a:before {
content: "•";
}
That was the culprit in my case
i think you could solve also your problem by wrapping text in your list-item with span then used something like this:
ul>li:nth-child(odd) > span:before {
display:none;
}
ul>li:nth-child(even) > span:before {
display:none;
}
Odd and even are keywords that can be used to match child elements whose index is odd or even, and display=none will do the trick to by not displaying element before the span element.
I am making a mobile webapp with JQuery Mobile. Now at the bottom I have some kind of a navigation menu. Here is the HTML
<ul data-role="listview">
<li data-icon="arrow-u">Top</li>
<li>Menu</li>
<li>Contacten</li>
<li>Klanten</li>
<li>Planning</li>
</ul>
Now I want the first listItem at the right side. So I made a css class 'top'
.top{
text-align:right;
padding-right:35px;
}
But for some reason it doesn't take this CSS class. Can anybody help ?
Try such:
ul li a.top{
text-align:right;
padding-right:35px;
}
OR such:
ul li:first-of-type a{
text-align:right;
padding-right:35px;
}
You are applying the top class to the a intead of the li.
Update
As your styling gets overridden, you need to increase the CSS-specificity of your selector until it is higher than the specificity of the rule that overrides it. As I don't know much of your DOM, the best I can give you is:
ul li.top{
text-align:right;
padding-right:35px;
}
But that might not be enought. Look through the article on CSS-specificity, there is a part on how to calculate specificity.
I've discovered that in certain cases overrides are a bit tricky. You may have to do something like this. Some browsers mobile & web are not picking up the overrides as I would have expected. End result I have to use important to make sure my style gets applied. Just be careful of how use this and where.
ul li.top{
text-align:right !important;
padding-right:35px !important;
}
I have a drop down list that I'm trying to get working in IE7. Amongst other bugs, the one that has me beat is the anchors on hover not pushing the background to full padding height. It seems to stay within the dimensions of its li and ultimately the ul. I've tried expanding the height of both ul and li but this doesn't seem to work. Works correctly in all other browsers:
http://jsfiddle.net/gzLVR/2/
What you should see: The anchor tag, on hover, should expand at the bottom by 50px (as per the css #menu > ul > li:hover > a { padding-bottom:50px; }. This expansion is performed, but the background-color doesn't seem to push to the anchor's margins.
What am I doing wrong?
IE7 does not support :hover on items other than <a> tags. Since you have your :hover on an <li> it is not working in IE7.
You'll need to add some javascript to add a .hover class to the <li> when you mouseover, and then adjust your css to include it as well:
#menu > ul > li:hover > a,
#menu > ul > li.hover > a{
padding-bottom:50px;
}
[EDIT]
It appears this is only true when IE7 renders in quirksmode. If you are using a strict doctype, you should be able to use :hover on an <li>
I think trigger hasLayout will fix it; you can do it with somthin like this:
#menu > ul > li > a { display: inline-block;}
Be aware of that IE don't supports :last-child up to IE8, but you can use :first-child.
I would also suggest to use a pseudo element for the part you used the <i></i>, so you don't have unneccessary markup in your HTML.
I ended up finding the solution myself. Each li's anchors are by default set to wrap around it's content (display:inline?), and setting the display to inline-block is somewhat dangerous as its behavior in IE7 is somewhat unpredictable.
By simply setting the anchor to display:block, you allow it to take on dimensions of itself in IE7, so you break it away from having it simply wrap around its content. Thus, it's possible for it to affect the needed padding when on hover.
This will now work in IE7:
http://jsfiddle.net/gzLVR/5/
Have you tried changing the anchor to
display:inline-block;
zoom:1;
The zoom should only be required for IE7, it triggers 'hasLayout'
I am using a combination of ul and li tags for a menu and I use display box and a background color to display it as buttons the problems is as soon as I enclose the a tags using li the buttons seem to be shifting to the right a bit like a indentation or something .
I tried
list-style: none;
but that doesnt work could anyone suggest a workaround this problem..
Thanks any help would be appreciated
Thanks everyone for the effort +1 to all answers
Set padding-left and margin-left on the ul to 0.
Have you reset the default margin and padding styles?
ul,li {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
You should check the margin and padding of the UL and LI elements, and set them to a specific value. Such as:
margin: 0;
padding: 5px;
A UL is typically styled to display with an indentation from the left, although it might also be the LI in some browsers (I believe).
In Firefox (w/Firebug), Chrome and IE9, you can inspect the applied styles using the developer tools available. This really helps to understand where issues are cropping up like this in your displayed elements.
http://getfirebug.com/html
Also, just in case you haven't seen it before, look at the box model:
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/box.html
A ul and/or li element will be given a default margin and/or padding by the browser. Try adding margin: 0; padding: 0 to your ul, li {}.
Better still, use a CSS Reset to save you the hassle with this, and many other, elements. I recommend this one: http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/css/reset/
