Some implement the bullets with padding and list-style, while others use margins and god-knows-what. I can't really remember anymore. I've just learned that the way to get rid of the bullets across all popular browsers is: ul, ul li { margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none; } If you don't set both margin and padding, you'll see inconsistent results. (Though perhaps this has been fixed in more recent times. I've been doing the above as an idiom for years.)
