    Hello,

    I enabled the WYSIWYG editor and am having problems inserting a bulleted list. When I click the "Unordered list" button, everything in the window becomes indented. I wanted some normal text, and then a few bulleted items.

    Also, only 1 bullet show up, when I would have wanted a bullet before each line.

    thanks,
    Grant

    I assume that the WYSIWYG editor creates HTML code, and therefore creates an "
      " tag for the list. The
        tag will automatically indent the list, there's no escaping it, that's part of the
          specs. Also, about everything coming under just 1 bullet: when you finish your text for a bullet, hit ENTER. This will create a new bullet.
          Hope it helps.

    First off...thank you for your suggestion, but I still could not get it to work.
    :(
    I began by clicking the bullet button. A bullet appeard and indented as expected. I typed a line and pressed Enter. A new line started, but no bullet.

    The above was the simple test that didn't work. Then I cleared the block and tried a more complex one. I typed a title, then pressed enter. Then I clicked the bullet icon, and the Title indented along with the line underneath it--on which the bullet appeared. Then I put a blank line in between the title and only the bulleted line indented with a bullet, as it should. But then, the next bulleted line failed as above.

    Not only is this a nuisance, it is very hindering. How do other people get those bulleted lists in there?

    Again, any help is much appreciated. :?:

    This is actually an easy problem to fix.

    Bullets only appear between paragraphs... in other words blocks of text formatted with the "

    BLOCK OF TEXT

    " HTML. Likely your whole text is moving because it was cut and pasted into the WYSIWYG editor, and the software thinks the whole block is one line of text. To remedy the problem edit the HTML code telling the program where your different paragraphs fall.
