Testcases: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2008Jul/att-0050/list-item-overflow-scroll.htm http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2008Jul/att-0050/list-item-overflow-visible.htm http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-archive/2008Jul/att-0050/list-item-overflow-hidden.htm Opera, Safari, and Firefox do not display the marker. However IE7 does. We think it makes more sense to display the marker, so we propose the following: Add to definition of 'outside': | 'overflow' on the element does not clip the marker box. | The marker box is fixed with respect to the principal block | box's border and does not scroll with the principal block | box's content. -- fantasai and Arron Eicholz
