Another Opera 7.54 Bug ?

[Opera forums/groups]

I don't know of any... care to give me an addy?

The forums are on the Opera Website <url:http://my.opera.com/forums/>.
I'll leave it to you to decide which is the most suitable one for your
message.

The newsgroups depend on whatever your NNTP server carries, or you can
use the server provided by Opera. See

On this page (for example): http://davmagic.com/paint/PAGES2.html all
the other popular Browsers get it right but Opera 7.54 does not render a
list item marker (an Image of a "blue right-pointing triangle") for the
first item (in the content section), or for the third item either (and
more down the list)... both of which I have placed an Image within the
<li>... tag.... like this:

<ul style="list-style-image: url(path/here)">
<li><img src="URL" align="right" alt="text" width="xx" height="yy">text
here
</ul>

Curiously, if I place the text first before the Image tag, Opera then
shows the marker... but this is not what I want because the Image aligns
with the next list item and this does not look right...

Any comments.... ?

Oooh! This time you do indeed seem to have found a real bug.

It seems to be caused by the align="right". If you remove that attibute
and the list item reappears. Replacing it with CSS ("float:right") doesn't
help.

An interesting bug. You ought to create a simplified example page and
report it in opera.page-display.

Thanks... I'm tired of trying to please Opera... by screwing up my
code.... all the others get it right... but I guess I'll mess with it
some more...

BTW where the hell is opera.page-display ? Is that a News Group? Or
what?

I try to "appease" Mozilla 1.73 (now), IE 6.0, and Netscape 4.xx (if I
choose) primarily. Of course, using "vanilla" html and css supposedly
makes all browsers work correctly...

A couple of bullet point are hardly a life-or-death problem. Just leave
it. If the bullet points are really important to you, then a non-breaking

It is indeed, though not all news servers will carry it.
