I cant seem to find a conclusive answer on whether i should be applying the style list-style-type ( or any of it’s relatives ) to ul/ol tags or to the li tag. This is probably because it doesn’t make any difference but maybe someone could confirm that and offer a suggestion as to best practice.
the best practice is to assign list styles to the list itself (ul, ol), and li’s will have it because of the cascading
from w3 css2.1 recommendation:
however, ie6 and 7 won’t recognize this inheritance correctly, so you’ll have to apply the list styles to li elements if you plan to support them
