Where do my bullets go?

Hello webwizards,
I am working on a Wordpress site. I styled a list so that, instead of using standard bullets, it uses my own bullet as a background image like so:
#content ul {      list-style: none;      padding-left: 0px;      margin: 0px } #content ul li {      background-image: url(images/bullet.png);      background-repeat: no-repeat;      background-position: 0px 12px;      padding-left: 12px;      } 
This works as I want it to, see it here:
http://www.littlewings-wanbetaler.nl/wordpress/zuskookt-overal/op-de-markt/
Now when I place an image in the post (from the WP dashboard) my bullets disappear, at least where the image is.
The image is floated to the left.
Why is this and how can I fix this?
Thank you

there is nothing wrong with using background images for styling lists. Some even say it is a better option.
I think the problem is elsewhere, maybe an inherited style or something. Those wordpress sites can easlily become complex.
If I test just the code for the list with an image floated to the left it works fine;
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/604341/floatlist/floatlist.html
There are still issues like the last lines running under the picture, but it works (the bullets show) and it is the same code as the link I gave in the opening post. (I put a blue border around the list for the test)
[edit]
I think I sort of solved the problem,  since I can't seem to reproduce the problem again. At least my bullets don't disappear anymore, maybe with some tweaking I wlll get the rest of the issues solved.
Thanks for looking

  • Where did my bullets go in Keynote? And why am I missing files?

    I've been working on a Keynote presentation that will be exported as a PDF eBook. I opened it up today and I get error messages saying that I have missing files and my square "checkmark-less" bullets have disappeared. (See image below)
    I'm using the Black Checkmark Bullets. The checkmark bullets are ok. Its checkmarkless cousin isn't listed in the inspector window when I try to update it manually. I'm also getting a lot of error messages.
    This is the first time I've expereinced this problem. Running 10.7.3 on a MBPro (2.66 i7 w/4GB RAM), Keynote 5.1.1).
    Ideas to correct this issue? Thanks in advance!

    SOLVED -
    Used AppCleaner to unstaill Keynote, Pages and Numbers. Reinstalled iWork from disk and ran updates. Issue resolved itself after this.

  • Problem with bullets in text boxes

    Hi,
    I haven't seen this problem written up anywhere but I am
    having problems with my text formatting differently in text boxes
    when I've used bullets in the text. I am using Captivate 2.
    So here's what happens:
    If the text caption has a bullet
    anywhere in the body, when I publish my captivate course, the text
    looks like normal 12 pt Arial.
    If there is a text box without any bullets, the text looks
    like it was bolded.
    The next result is that I have two types of body text
    throughout my course.
    I went into every slide and verified that there is no other
    text formatting going on and I did find that Impact was sometimes
    in the same text boxes where I had bullets but I finally got rid of
    all the impact. However, the problem remains. Can anyone help me?
    Thanks,
    Lin

    Hi Lin and welcome to our community
    My guess here is that you are using the Transparent caption
    type. When you do this, the caption anti-aliases the text inside
    and many claim it looks either bold or fuzzy. You have two options.
    1. Use Bullets on all captions. Don't worry, you don't have
    to actually SEE the bullets. Just press Enter a few times and apply
    bullets to one of the blank lines. Then size the caption so the
    bullet part is hidden from view.
    2. Implement a trick discovered by fellow Adobe Community
    Expert Paul Dewhurst. You can see his trick by

    Hopefully one of these works for you... Rick

    In the repeating frame of the row where you require bullets, Draw an ellipse and fill it with black color so that it will appear as bullets. Write format trigger to make it visible or not as you wish.

  • PrintStackTrace not appearing in application.log?

    We are having a difficult time locating the Stack Traces that we expected to see in the application.log of our J2EE Web Applications. Within our servlets the typical try/catch sequence is something like:
    try {
    // do some stuff that can throw an exception
    } catch(Exception ex) {
    ex.printStackTrace();
    ErrorBean errorBean = new ErrorBean(
    (ex.getMessage()!=null) ? ex.getMessage() : ex.getClass().getName(),
    request.getRequestURI(),ex);
    // Push ErrorBean into request scope for forward to Error Handler
    request.setAttribute(Constants.ERROR_KEY,errorBean);
    return (mapping.findForward("unexpectedError"));
    However, we can't find the output from the ex.printStackTrace() anywhere. It doesn't appear to be laying in the application.log. Any ideas? Is there something we should configure somewhere to send the stacktraces to application.log?
    Arghh....any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Bob
    Bob

    Ah...yes...they were right where you said they would be. However, is there some configuration that I could do to put the console messages (System.out.println() and, more importantly for us, ex.printStackTrace()) in the global-application.log so we would at least get some concept of the time of the exceptions? As it stands now we can see the actual exceptions in a file named after our OC4J instances (./ora9ias/opmn/logs/camsu.default_island.1) and some logging stuff with Timestamps from the Struts framework in the file the application.xml sends it to(<file path="../log/global-application.log"/>) but it is difficult to match the exceptions up with the servlet requests that caused them due, mainly, to lack of timestamps. Is there a way to get the stuff that presently goes to the opmn/logs file into the global-application.log?
    Regardless, I will definitely follow up the the Log4J stuff. Maybe that's where the magic bullet is. Thanks so much for your reply. This was giving me fits.

  • Get data to fill inseperate cells when pasted?

    I was coping information from a bullet point list and it was entering on spreadsheet template in seperate rows in one column but now is entering all copied info to the first row not spliting into seperate rows dont know what i have done?

    you provide detail about:
    1) Where is the bullet point list? (In a document, Website)
    2) What application are you copying the data from?
    I have found that if you copy tables and lists from a website that Safari will correctly copy, and paste into Numbers.  Firefox does not.  If the source is something else I suggest pasting as text into a blank email, or text document in "Text Edit" or Pages, then make sure all the delimiters separating the columns are tabs.  Then copy from there to a Numbers table

  • Unordered list displayed horizontally

    Hello,
    I am really new to Dreamweaver and I tried to complete (succesfully) the video on how to build my first website.
    Following the instruction was not so complicate...
    I tried to do pretty much alone the same focusing in creating the button from an unordered list
    I did with no CSS file, I created a new one empty. I am able to remove the bullet point, align the list but I can not display the button horizontally and I do not understand why.
    This is what I did:
    create a Navigation  (id= buttons)
    create an unordered list
    create a CSS file empty
    add a selection #buttons ul where I deleted bullet point and aligned the list
    add a selection #buttons a here I have problems. I apply with 25% (4 buttons) and set the float option to the left but the list remains vertical
    What I do wrong???? It seems I am doing like in the video. Is maybe related to the CSS file? Is not correct doing that with an empty one?
    Thanks for any help

  • Remove duplicate movieclips problem

    I have a shooter game where i duplicate bullet holes in the wall.  Works nicely though i have to use Version: Flash Player 6 for the code to work.  Here is the simple code:
    hit1.onPress=function(){
         i++;
         _root.bullet.duplicateMovieClip("bulletNew", i);
    I have a Reset Button that i would like to use to remove all the duplicate "bulletNew" movieclips at once.  This is what i have so far but it only removes one duplicate at a time:
    reset_mc.onRelease=function(){
         removeMovieClip("bulletNew");
    Please be clear with instructions because I have never grasped AS too well.
    Thanks.

    to publish for later fp versions, initialize your variables (like i) and check upper/lower case of all code.
    var i:Number=0;
    var tl:MovieClip=this;
    hit1.onPress=function(){
         i++;
         _root.bullet.duplicateMovieClip("bulletNew"+i, i);
    reset_mc.onRelease=function(){
       for(var j:Number=0;j<i;j++){
    if(tl["bulletNew"+i]){
    tl["bulletNew"+i].removeMovieClip();
    p.s.  if that's the only place you create bullet holes, you can make that code more efficient by only looping through movieclips that exist.  for example:
    var i:Number=0;
    var bulletNewA:Array=[];
    hit1.onPress=function(){
    bulletNewA.push(_root.bullet.duplicateMovieClip("whatever",i));
    reset_mc.onRelease=function(){
    for(var j:Number=bulletNewA.length-1;j>=0;j--){
    var mc:MovieClip=bulletNewA.splice(j,1)[0];
    mc.removeMovieClip();

    In the options are 3 posibilities:
    – means ignor, it will not make any change
    An ok sign will apply this property
    Empty will deactivate this property
    For font styling you will have to select a regular style to not to bolden a bullet.

  • Game loop logic?

    Hey all,
    I'm looking for some help in the logic department instead of specific code help;
    I'm currently working (or trying, anyway) to make a Java ME game for my mobile. Essentially, it's a little arcade shooter: ship shoots asteroid, you get the idea. The setup is pretty simple;
    There's the game loop that takes care of all the usual things: input, collision detection, etc. There's my little ship that can fire bullets. Firing the bullets is easily done but it gets a bit odd with the shooting of the bullets. Right now, I simply have an array of 10 bullets. When the player presses fire, the first bullet not on the screen is selected and fired, by placing it at the top of the ship and then moving it forward. The forward movement is done by a method in the game loop called moveBullet(). With each game loop iteration, regardless of where the 10 bullets are, they simply get 5 pixels added to their Y location and the new position is set for the sprite. This all works like a charm, so there's no question there.
    It gets tricky, however, when I would like to introduce an enemy ship. Again, placing the enemy ship isn't the problem. In fact, if I want it to fire whenever the player fires, this too works just fine. I have simply copied the above setup from the player and applied it to the enemy. The thing is, however, that if I want to create a game with different missions (and thus: different amount of enemies per mission), I do not want to run about 10 or 20 moveEnemyBullet() methods in my main game loop. (Especially not when they're not all being used!) I would want something more CPU efficient.
    So, my question is: how can I create a way of letting the enemies fire their bullets whenever they feel like it (I'll write AI for that) but let the movement only activate for that enemy iteration when it's needed, instead of running all the time, eating up CPU cycles?

    Thanks, doubld!
    Funnily enough, I talked this problem over with a friend last night and he suggested nearly the very same thing! Only difference was to place all created bullets in a vector, and then loop through the vector to fire off all the bullets their respective moveBullets method. The reason for that suggestion was because I indicated I wanted to have multiple weapon types but still would like to fire them all through one loop, perhaps each weapon with its own behaviour. (Say: have custom bullets, but also have heatseeking missiles.) He suggested creating an interface called Weapon and have all weapon classes implement this, like so:
    public interface Weapon {
         void createWeapon() throws IOException;
         void fireWeapon();
         void moveWeapon();
         void destroyWeapon();
         Sprite getWeaponSprite();
    }And then call all the movement methods (or other shared methods) and have different types of weapons all in the same vector, firing off in one game loop, like so:
    for(int i=0; i < weaponVector.size(); i++)
         ((Weapon) weaponVector.elementAt(i)).moveWeapon();
    }This way, each weapon that's created is in the vector and can be removed once used (as you said: either by hitting the player / enemy or by moving off the screen).
    All in all, I think, because or the different behaviours I want per weapon, I'm going with the variant suggested by my friend. However, it's very good to hear two very different people with a technical background give roughly the same advice. That gives me a good idea that I'm on the right way. :)
