How to make your own list bullet in HTML
Almost any sign, character, or symbols can be turned into a list bullet. The only condition obligatory is that it must be rendered by fonts. To do this, the pseudo-element ::before is applied to the tag <li>. Let me show you an example.
HTML
<ul class="plan_na_jizn">
<li>First, don't give up and don't give in.</li>
<li>Secondly, love everybody and smile.</li>
<li>Thirdly, find and lose again.</li>
<li>Finally, give up and give in.</li>
</ul>
CSS
/* remove all that was there by default */
.plan_na_jizn { list-style-type: none; }
/* add your own */
.plan_na_jizn li::before { content: "\2765"; }
This “\2765” css is the code of the turned heart which is written on its page in the tab “Technical information”. Now we have it instead of dots.
- First, don't give up and don't give in.
- Secondly, love everybody and smile.
- Thirdly, find and lose again.
- Finally, give up and give in.
The party doesn't have to be over with this collection. Check out other collections. Unicode offers a huge variety of symbols that are able to serve the same purpose.
