I'm not sure that I understand what you're trying to do.
I *think* you're saying that this happens:
* some text, which then
wraps to here
when you really want
* some text, which then
wraps to here
Is that correct?
Are you, perhaps, putting a <p> tag inside your <li> tag? This may cause
problems. You don't need it; the <li> takes the place of it unless you
really want a paragraph separation. That is, if you want this
* some text, with no paragraph separation
then the HTML is <li>some text, with no paragraph separation</li>
wherease for this
* some text in the first paragraph
some text in the next paragraph
without a bullet next to the second para, then the HTML is <li>some
text in the first paragraph<p>some text in the next paragraph</p></li>
Hope this helps!

Subject: Dreamweaver question
Hi all, I'm creating curriculum in Dreamweaver and I can't figure out
how to get text aligned when using a bullet or a graphical element
before text. My dilemma is that I have bulleted text and I can't align
the text below with the text above, it automatically wraps underneath
the bullet. I'm at wits end, I've tried numerous HTML markup tags and
none work. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Michele
