Elements in

Question:

How can I specify a custom bullet character for

• elements within a
  without using an image? Specifically, I'd like to use the ' ' symbol as the bullet.

  Answer:

  It is possible to customize bullet characters using CSS without relying on images. Here's how:

  1. Reset Unordered List Styling:

     CSS:

     ul {
       list-style: none;
       margin-left: 0;
       padding-left: 0;
     }

  2. Set Indentation for List Items:

     CSS:

     li {
       padding-left: 1em;
       text-indent: -1em;
     }

  3. Add a Custom Bullet Using CSS's :before Pseudo-Element:

     CSS:

     li:before {
       content: "+";
       padding-right: 5px;
     }

  This method indents text within list items to achieve the desired spacing. Additionally, the :before pseudo-element places a ' ' character before each list item. The padding-right property ensures it has sufficient space.
