Why don't the "bullets" display in an unordered list ( ul ).
This is the code I used:
<div style="color:#ffffff; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:12pt; line-height: 1.5;">
<ul style="list-style-type:disc">
<li>Schema Therapy</li>
<li>EMDR Trainings</li>
<li>Master Class Supervision</li>
<li>ACT</li>
<li>DBT</li>
<li>Others</li>
</ul>
</div>
See attached image. There are no bullets (disc) displayed. Ideas?

Hello James,
Your code is not quite valid for HTML5, with some parts being deprecated, etc.
Use this code instead:
<list style="color:#ffffff; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:12pt; line-height: 1.5;">
<ul.a>
<li>Schema Therapy</li>
<li>EMDR Trainings</li>
<li>Master Class Supervision</li>
<li>ACT</li>
<li>DBT</li>
<li>Others</li>
</ul.a>
</list>
Kind regards,
Paul

Ya Ha!! Thanks for the tip Paul M. It works.
Now one more question... how do I change the color of the "bullet/disc"? I want it the same color as the text "Work Shop."
Again... thanks for your help Paul.

Sigh Paul... When viewed from within X5 the bullets display. See attached image. But when uploaded to the inet ( http://therapist-training.jameskbtestdomain.com/ ) ... they do not display. Huh?
The bullet points are displayed correctly when I view your webpage in my own browser, James (see the screenshot attached).
Did you clear your browser cache before testing?
Hello far friends,
Paul, for all purposes not visible on my computer on IE 11 and Firefox, but works fine on Chrome. Very strange...
Nice day to you, J.P.
Thank you Jiper... interesting that the bullets are displayed in IE11 when using Compatibility View?
James, I lifted the following source code directly from your modified web page:
<list style="color:#ffffff; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:12pt; line-height: 1.5;">
<ul.a>
<li>Schema Therapy</li>
<li>EMDR Trainings</li>
<li>Master Class Supervision</li>
<li>ACT</li>
<li>DBT</li>
<li>Others</li>
</ul></div>
The closing tag I have highlighted in bold should be as follows:
</ul.a>

Does anyone have any ideas on this issue? The bullets display when viewed with Chrome but do not display using IE, Edge, Firefox? I really need a solution to this issue.
Why not instead of a bullet code use a small picture as bullet in a text object in front of your text?
You can choose the bullet colour and form and size yourself this way, and set the text yourself in any way you wish, besides that it will work in any browser.
If you search google for a good picture I suggest the wordt 'dot' :) Else you get a lot of other bullets....

Hi,
You should change this:
<ul style="list-style:disc inside none;">
