Cross Browser Solution for Image Marker in CSS

CSS Web Development Front End Technology

In order to display an image marker properly in all browsers, a cross-browser solution is required. The text alignment after the image marker is sometimes distorted. To achieve a uniform output, we specify the image to be used as a marker as background and align it accordingly.

Example

The following examples illustrate styling of lists −
