lists in tables

[Jim]

A simple list element wraps so that the text on the second
displayed line lines up with the text on the first line; e.g.,

<ul>
<li>Many, many, many, many, ... words

looks like

o Many, many, many, ...
many words

(e.g., if you view this post with a monospace font).

If this same list is in a table, the text wraps to align with the
bullet:

<table>
<tr>
<ul>
<td>
<li>Many, many, many, many, ... words

looks like

o Many, many, many, ...
many words

Is there a way to get a list in a table to have lines after the
first indent, as a list not in a table does?

Thanks,
Jim

Put the ul element's tags inside the td element's tags, not the other
way around.

Yes.
<table><tr><t d>
<ul>
<li>Many, many, many, many, ... words

Thank you, both. I could have sworn that I tried that (ul after td)
but obviously I didn't, since that works.

Thanks again,
Jim
