List Indentation

[Jay]

I used CSS to take off the indentation of the unordered list tag for a side
menu which works in IE and Opera and that's about it.

Is there a way to move this list to the left in Netscape and Mozilla also?

add 'padding:0;' to '#linkList ul'

you've also invoked a bug in IE with em font sizes making the text
unreadable.

change the font sizes to % or add 'font-size:100%;' to the body css
properties.

you also have the main text 10% smaller than my preferred size (.9em).
if i wanted it 10% smaller and was conformable reading text 10% smaller
i would make it 10% smaller.

Set the padding-left to zero as well as the margin.

Often it is best to set both the margin and padding to 0 for all
elements, then add them in where necessary, as different browsers have
different defaults.

Good tip

That did it (a little oversight on my part)

I couldn't get the screen shot to come up...

properties.

Will do.

i would make it 10% smaller.

Thanks for the tip!

Mark,

Thanks for the tip! It worked just as I had hoped!
