Unordered Lists

A bulleted list in the main text—not inside a box or table cell—needs no special class tags. Note that the paragraph just above the list has the class bottom-margin-half. I do this frequently to group a paragraph with its associated list. Sometime soon, I want to make this automatic depending upon browser support for the css directives.

Here’s an example:

• List item 1
• List item 2
• List item 3

Within a box or table cell, the list is assigned the class level-1-bullet-plain and looks like this:

• List item 1
• List item 2
• List item 3

The css handles multi-level unordered lists mostly automatically.

• Top level item 1.
  • 2nd level item 1.
  • 2nd level item 2.
  • 2nd level item 3.
• Top level item 2.
• Top level item 3.

Adele’s Thoughts on Unordered Lists in Word Template

Use the tools built into the Word “ribbon” to create generic bullet lists.

Don't get fancy with the type of bullet. Use the built in tools to start a second level of bullets.

Ordered Lists

The ul has class="top-level-normal"

1. First item of numbered list.
2. Use this in book pages outside of tables and boxes.

The ul has no class tag or class="decimal"

1. First item of numbered list.
2. Use this in book pages within table or boxes.

The ul has class="upper-alpha"

1. The most common numbering schemes in outlines are defined.
2. Second item of numbered list.

The ul has class="lower-roman-in-parens"

1. The most common numbering schemes in outlines are defined.
2. The css code takes care of indenting.

Currently Implemented Ordered List Classes
