This seems irrelevant, unless it was fixed in FF4 (I'm using 3.6 on my Windows box still). In the trivial test case I'm looking at (just text-align:right the list item) the marker clearly follows the text into the visible area. > Note that I'm not sure what you mean by "positions outside markers according > to the list-item's first line" here, but in Gecko the _vertical_ position is > affected by the baseline of the first line while the _horizontal_ position > is not affected by the first line at all. In particular, unlike Opera > text-indent does not affect _outside_ markers in Gecko. This doesn't seem to be true. In particular, setting text-align:right makes the outside list marker follow the text to the right. It also pays at least some attention to text-indent; if you combine text-indent and text-align:right, the outside list marker moves away from the text an amount equal to the text-indent. (Again, this is FF 3.6.) ~TJ
