Ok, I have a wordpress theme installed here (www.sullivansuccesscoaching.com/home …we need the /home because there is still an index.html hiding the wordpress install. This is intentional).
On the /home page I have a jquery cycle.lite running for the .animCont class which basically fades the slides using opacity changes. The ol, ul elements are reset using a reset stylesheet similar to Eric Meyer’s, as such, all the ol, ul elements are styled individually.
Inside each .animCont li exists a div.teaser. In some of the div.teaser’s there are unordered lists and I simply cannot get the list-style to take!
Currently, the four lines of css code that are seemingly relevant are:
.featured .animCont .alignleft {margin:0 36px 0 0;}
.featured .animCont .alignright {margin:0 0 0 36px;}
.featured .animCont .teaser ul, .featured .animCont .teaser ul li {display:block;list-style-type:disc !important;}
.featured .animCont .teaser ul li {line-height:18px;margin:6px 0 6px 20px;list-style-position:outside !important;}
For demonstration purposes here is a basic layout for the ul.animCont
<ul class="animCont">
<li class="clearfix">
<a href="linkurl"><img src="imageurl" /></a>
<div class="teaser">
<h2>The title</h2>
<ul>
<li>something1</li>
<li>something2</li>
<li>something3</li>
</ul>
</div><!-- // .teaser -->
</li><!-- slide1 -->
<li class="clearfix">
<a href="linkurl"><img src="imageurl" /></a>
<div class="teaser">
<h2>The title</h2>
<ul>
<li>something1</li>
<li>something2</li>
<li>something3</li>
</ul>
</div><!-- // .teaser -->
</li><!-- slide2 -->
</ul><!-- // .animCont

I was able to show the bullets by removing the display properties for the CSS rules as shown below:

I’m not sure if this is exactly what you need, but hopefully it will help get you on the right track.
