Really quick-fix for HTML code error

[peadarpob]

Hi

I have to fix ONE little error in the below code
and it's wrecking my brains!

Basically, the 2nd section of bullet points,
starting with the following code, should be in
a straight line of bullet points but I cant
make it so (the first one is correct):

LI><SPAN class=black>Report of the Committee on Dermatology Services</SPAN>

Please can you help with this stoopid code fix.

Thx, ppob

List items are block level elements meaning that they are rendered below each other. You can use CSS to declare them as inline elements, but then most (all?) browsers won't show the bullet in front of each item.

Two methods to achieve what you are looking for:

1) Use the &#149; entity which is rendered as a bullet:

&#149; item one &#149; item two &#149; item three ...

2) If markup counts for you, you might want to go the CSS route with something like this:

<ul>
<li style="display: inline">&#149; item one</li>
<li style="display: inline">&#149; item two</li>
<li style="display: inline">&#149; item three</li>
...
</ul>

That is an interesting mix of code there peadarpob.

I recommend you check out the w3c HTML validator [validator.w3.org] before you do too much more devlopment :)

I'd start with first cleaning up the HTML code so it can validate. Strip out all but the most basic stuff, then head over to [alistapart.com...] There, you can find out how to do inline lists and other fun stuff. But, until the HTML is valid, a lot of the CSS may not function as expected...

Is this being worked on?
