Are 2 column bullets possible?

[plasticsurgery]

I have been searching exhaustively the past few days to find out if it's possible to setup 2 column bullets in posts. Is this possible to do in vBulletin?

CSS will do it. make each of the <li> on have a width of 50%.

You can use: ul.a {list-style-type:circle;} to create a circle in your CSS.

Then anything within <li> will have a bullet / circle before it.

Thanks for the replies guys! Should I do this as a separate CSS rule or can I accomplish this with a BB code of some sort?

Basically I don't want it to be 2 columns be default, but there are various reviews (made as vB posts) that contain long lists of bullets and to make them look better, I figure it would be best to have two columns. So I need to find a way to selectively use them.

If that's not possible, just a selective way to create 2 columns of text within vB posts could work, too.

Thanks!

If you don't want it by default, then I would suggest a bbcode that adds a class to the list and you can write the css for that class in your additional.css template.

Thanks Lynne! So I would just enclose the list with the BB code, like this:



bullet one
bullet two
bullet three



By any chance would you be able to post an example of what should be entered into the BB code and additional CSS rule?

Thanks so much!

Just something like this (from the article I wrote):
/* For [2c] BBCode */
.twocolumn ul {
float: left;
width: 90%;
margin: 0 0 0 1em;
padding: 0;
}
.twocolumn li {
float: left;
width: 50%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
clear:none;
}
