    Bullets not displaying in IE7

    It seems that adding
    Code:
    * {margin: 0; padding: 0}
    to my css prevents IE7 from displaying the bullets on my <ul>. When I remove
    Code:
    * {margin: 0; padding: 0}
    the bullets show up just fine, but of course, I have to deal with the issue of extra space at the top of my page. I've tried forcing it with
    Code:
    ul {list-style-type: disc;}
    to no avail. Does anyone know a workaround for this or am I stuck with it?

    It may be because IE requires the left margin for lists.

      Thanks! I gave up and changed it to <div>'s with border-bottoms. Seems I read somewhere on here, "There's always more than one way to skin a cat." =)

        There sure is, but that may not be the best way, though I guess sometimes you need to compromise if you want a working solution.

        Btw, those slanting divs make the site mighty slow (for the content).

          Yeah, I know. I was just playing around with the idea of using different programming constructs to display the page (loops). Weird idea, I know, but I wanted to see what would happen.
