The article How to change bullets on list items with CSS describes possible values you can set when you want to manage style of bullets in your Web project.  When you want to remove the indentation entirely so that the list will align left with any other content, you can use the setting from the next test file:

 

Files test.css

ul {

list-style-type: none;

padding-left: 0;

margin-left: 0;

}

 

You can test these setting with the next test file:

File test.html

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN”

“https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd”>

<html xmlns=”https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml” lang=”en-US”>
