public class CssListStyle
extends CssProperty
implements CssOperator

   'list-style'

Value: <keyword> || <position> || <url>
Initial: not defined for shorthand properties
Applies to: elements with 'display' value 'list-item'
Inherited: yes
Percentage values: N/A

The 'list-style' property is a shorthand notation for setting the three properties 'list-style-type', 'list-style-image' and 'list-style-position' at the same place in the style sheet. 

   UL { list-style: upper-roman inside }
   UL UL { list-style: circle outside }
   LI.square { list-style: square }

Setting 'list-style' directly on 'LI' elements can have unexpected results. Consider: 

   <STYLE TYPE="text/css">
     OL.alpha LI  { list-style: lower-alpha }
     UL LI        { list-style: disc }
   </STYLE>
   <BODY>
     <OL CLASS=alpha>
       <LI>level 1
       <UL>
          <LI>level 2
       </UL>
     </OL>
   </BODY>

Since the specificity (as defined in the cascading order) is higher for the first rule in the style sheet in the example above, it will override the second rule on all 'LI' elements and only 'lower-alpha' list styles will be used. It is therefore recommended to set 'list-style' only on the list type elements: 

   OL.alpha  { list-style: lower-alpha }
   UL        { list-style: disc }

In the above example, inheritance will transfer the 'list-style' values from 'OL' and 'UL' elements to 'LI' elements.

A URL value can be combined with any other value: 

   UL { list-style: url(http://png.com/ellipse.png) disc }

In the example above, the 'disc' will be used when the image is unavailable.
