List styling - dislay: none - Page 2

JSWolf · 09-14-2023, 08:36 AM

Here is the CSS and HTML I would use for your lists.

HTML

Code:

<blockquote>
<p class="list">Virginia Creeper, Creeping</p>

CSS

Code:

blockquote {
  margin-top: 1em;
  margin-right: 1.5em;
  margin-bottom: 1em;
  margin-left: 1.5em;
}
.blockquote {
  margin-top: 1em;
  margin-right: 1.5em;
  margin-bottom: 0;
  margin-left: 1.5em;
}
.list {
  margin-left: 1.2em;
  text-indent: -1.2em;
}

Then you you get to the end of the first stanza...

Code:

</blockquote>
<blockquote>

For the last stanza, use...

Code:

<blockquote class="blockquote">

To prevent the chance of a blank page depending on settings.

I added that to the page.
Weirdly enough ReadEra renders the text in italics.

I added : text-decoration: none;
to:
.list {
margin-left: 1.2em;
text-indent: -1.2em;
}
But it still renders as italicized in ReadEra
Thanks,

If you want any kind of control on display, you just need to remember three words: don't use lists.

By "list" do you mean these tags: ol, ul, li ?

If so, the above CSS/HTML provided by JSWolf is not a list.
Correct?

Right. With lists I mean the HTML list tags (<ol>, <ul>, <dl>).

There are so many kinds of lists. Have a look at this file in calibre's tag editor for ideas. Best Regards, Pop
