Assuming that it falls outside the overflow box, it should disappear. The marker is part of the (first) line box of the list-item box. It should act exactly like any inline element on that line, just rendered flush with the start of the line box. I wrote some prose on how this is supposed to work back in the 2002 timeframe: http://www.w3.org/Style/Group/css3-src/css3-lists/#markers ...the latest version of which is here: http://cgi.w3.org/member-bin/process.cgi?method=url&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.damowmow.com%2Ftemp%2Fcsswg%2Flists%2Fcurrent%2Flists.src&output=html#model It needs more work before we can call it a real spec, though.
