Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Firefox 1.0.2

On the sitemap for my website, I have three classes of indents specified in my 
stylesheet, as follows:

li.indent1{list-style-type : square; color:000000;}
li.indent2{list-style-type : disc; color:000000; text-indent : 25px;}
li.indent3{list-style-type : circle; color:000000; text-indent : 50px;}

When viewed in Firefox, all the bullets are aligned at the position of the 
first indent, and all are square (I believe this part of the bug has already 
been reported). 

However, they are not in the correct position even for this class, since they 
appear over the text which should follow them (about two characters into the 
text). I have noticed this when building other pages.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Firefox
2. Go to http://www.conceptstew.co.uk/PAGES/sitemap.html
3. Voila!

Actual Results:  
(1) The bullets appear in a straight vertical line, instead of following the 
indents specified in the CSS stylesheet and (2) they overlay the text even in 
the first class - so presumably it is not just a question of ignoring 
subsequent styles.

Expected Results:  
The bullets should appear before the relevant text item:
- like this
and should follow the indenting as specified in the CSS style sheet:
- something like
   - this
   - or thereabouts.

Nothing else to add, that's it.
The example URL http://www.conceptstew.co.uk/PAGES/sitemap.html looks the same
for me in IE6 as it does in :
- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-GB; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050321
Firefox/1.0.2
- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050414
Firefox/1.0+
Reporter, can you attach screenshots of what the bug is?
