Now here's an example of IE mangling bulleted lists. Dan's approach has
worked for some, but the placement gets a little funky if the text wraps in
any browser.
CSS control works, unless you don't use CSS to define a wide enough margin
in the table. If the margins aren't defined, then the bullets disappear in IE.
Having fun yet??
Just my experience so far anyway . . .
