Hanging indent in HTML

Get Started
1

Hi,
Can someone please tell me how to achieve the following:
I want my content to look like an unordered list. Text, in bullet points. But with hanging indents. And I want text to be black but bullets blue.

To achieve this effect, I can…

Use an unordered list, yes. This way I will get hanging indent effect automatically. But I can’t style my bullets this way, because bullets do not exist as characters in HTML. Right? Is there something I don’t know here?

Or, another way, I can have a regular paragraph and style it with a SPAN tag, like I do, and put another SPAN tag around my bullets to make them blue. But how do I get the hanging indent effect then?

Thank you very much!

This is a CSS question rather than an HTML one since HTML doesn’t have indents at all.

The CSS property you need to achieve the effect you want is text-indent.

Thank you, Steve.

Is there a way to use UL but to give color to my bullets, in HTML?
