When posting on PPRuNe, I have mastered bold and italics but I can't get "List" to work. Am I correct in assuming that this is what I should use when I wish to make a series of bullet points, as follows?:-. .. . Point one. .Point two. .Point three . .. .As you will see, it does not work <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="mad.gif" /> . .. .What am I doing wrong, please?? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="confused.gif" />. . . . <small>[ 23 March 2002, 17:45: Message edited by: Distaff Beancounter ]</small>

You need each list item to start with a star in square braces. .. .[**]ONE. .[**]TWO. .[**]THREE. .. .. .Remove one * for it to work.... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="rolleyes.gif" /> . .. .See <a href="http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/ultimatebb.php?ubb=ubb_code_page" target="_blank"> this</a>
