What I'm sure will be a simple question about CSS

So in my CSS file I've got a class for the <p> tag.

The wierd thing is, I can't seem to use the <li> tag in any of the paragraphs that are assigned that particular class.

Is there any reason for this? Do I specifically have to designate an <li> attribute for that p class in order for lists to display properly?

Does that make any sense?!

You mean like this:

<p class="yourclass">
   <ul>
      <li>list item 1...</li>
   </ul>
</p> 

Depending on exactly what "yourclass" is doing you *may* need to re-specify the behavior you want the list to use, but generally not. You could do this by:

.yourclass ul li {
list attributes here
}

It sounds more like an html problem though. You are wrapping your <li> tags with <ul> or <ol> right?

Yeah, I've been doing that.

Thanks for the code though, I'll give it a shot and see what happens!

Is it not creating the list elements at all, or do they not have bullet points?

List bullet points are controlled using the list-type attribute I think.

What, exactly, are you trying to do that would require you to put an <li> tag inside of a <p>? I'm not 100% sure that it will validate to begin with, much less render correctly in every browser, is why I'm asking. Maybe there is another tag that you should be using instead (<dl>, for instance).
