Lines between Listed Items

About This Message Board

I just did Crown Prince of Irony’s political beliefs list. He asked that there be a blank line between bulleted items in a list.

The only way I could figure out to do it was thusly:
[ul][li]Item 1[/li]put a character with COLOR=“White”]
[li]Next item[/li]put a character with COLOR=“White”]
[li]And so on.[/ul][/li]Is there an easier way?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Shodan

The only other way I know is as follows:

[ul][li]line[/ul][/li]
[ul][li]line[/ul][/li]
[ul][li]line[/ul][/li]
It will not work with numbers, though. You’ll get:
[ol][li]line[/ol][/li]
[ol][li]line[/ol][/li]
[ol][li]line[/ol][/li]
You’ll just have to do those manually:

  1. line

  2. line

  3. line

No he didn’t. He asked for a bullet list or if you couldn’t figure out how to do that then he requested you add a blank line to separate your text.

[li]Posts should be bulleted (if you can’t bullet with the “list” command, for some reason, enter a blank space between lines) [/li][/QUOTE]

There were many ridiculous rules in that thread so I’m not surprised at the confusion. I assume none of them are enforceable anyway.

That was likely the point.

Perhaps several threads should be started here in ATMB, just so we can be sure in exhaustive detail exactly how enforcable people think these rules should be.

You can also use the non-breaking space, +#160; (change the + to &)

[ol][li]line[/li] 
[li]line[/li] 
line[/ol]

Cool. Just be careful with that. Past experience has shown me that clicking preview will convert all the spaces to regular spaces, as will quoting, I think.

You’re right. The solution I read here was that, if you have to edit the post after preview, go back to the previous page first and the original coding will be there.
