Bullets on bulleted text not showing

[FukienMan]

I am entering my products and when I am giving the product a description, I sometimes use bulleted text. In the preview screen you can see the bullets but when you go live to your site, there are no bullets.

I am copying and pasting the text from my original website so that I don't have to do all that typing all over again. I paste the text first into Notepad. It has all the HTML code for bullets which I remove so that you see nothing but plain text and then copy that to the products add text box in my admin. Then I add the bullets there.

What is wrong with this procedure that the bullets are not showing?

Thanks, but could you be a little more specific. Where is product_info.css and EXACTLY where do I add that code. Newbie here!!

includes/templates/your template/css/product_info.css then place the code at the end of the file. DON'T USE WORD TO EDIT use note pad.
BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO THIS SO IF IT BREAKS YOUR SITE YOU CAN REINSTALL

You may not have have product_info.css in your template/css folder. It's not a standard css file to have from default.

I have attached one for you. save it to
site_name/includes/templates/your_template/css

hope it helps. Billy

Thanks.
I did not have the file so I downloaded Billy's. I assume you added the necessary code as it contains this code:

@charset "utf-8";
/* CSS Document */
#productDescription li {
list-style:disc;
}

But is still does not work; no bullets

stab in th dark here but try just this part of the code #productDescription li {
list-style:disc;
}
most of the styling is in the stylesheet.css file

Find this in your stylesheet and remove the red part:

ul{margin:0;padding:0;display:block}#productDescription ul
li{margin-right:2px;padding:2px
0 2px 17px;color:#000;list-style:none;font-size:1.1em}

ul{margin:0;padding:0;display:block}#productDescription ul
li{margin-right:2px;padding:2px
0 2px 17px;color:#000;list-style:none;font-size:1.1em}

Well that took care of the bullet appearing problem, now they do not indent the way they show in the preview. The bullets are to the far left as far as they can go. Indenting more in the text editor does nothing.

You'll have to fiddle with the margin and padding in the ul and/or li elements in the same rule to move the bullets around relative to the text.
