I am trying to set the background color to bullet and number lists. I am not sure what to actually search for, try many different strings with no success, so I thought maybe someone here can give me a jolt.

When setting the background color for normal text in an epub it's easy to control with padding and margin settings. When setting the background for an 'ol' or 'ul' list they have this boxed area. you can set the list inside or outside but either way still leaves an indent on the left. When you add a background color to the css it begins the color on the edge of that list box.

Is there some way to allow the background to be flush left to the page, not the edge of the list area? Does the whole list need to be in a div?

Thanks
