In a wild spree of pure masochism you may even decide to change Font style for every item in the List, preparing, for instance, an HTML document like this:

img

which will be displayed by your Browser like this:

img

BUT: once again the HTML Code above is not correct !!!! - see below - (second incorrect example).


Now look at the black dot that the Browser inserts before each item in the List: black is not really nice, is it ?
No problem, you can match the dot colour with the List item colour, just by moving your <FONT> Opening Tags before each corresponding <LI> Tag, and everything will square up nicely (apparently).
This is the code (once again, not correct - see below - third incorrect example):

img

and this is the colourful result:

img

Voilá !
Netscape 4.0 will do something even nicer: it will create larger bullets, of a diameter proportional to the FONT SIZE chosen, like this:

img

BUT NOT Netscape 6.0: dots will be black and standard size.
