This theme (most, actually) uses HTML lists in the sidebar. The indentation is handled by the list code. So why, when I specify a text-align of right, do the lists not indent, but appear all flush right? Since the list code creates the indentation, shouldn’t the lists indent from the right?

    If you’d add: “padding-right:10px;” to the style: “ul.pageListing” it would indent all sidebar bullets in relation to the section dividers. Leave out the quotes, and you can change the 10px spacing to whatever you’d like of course.

    Ah, that worked though I had to specify it for ul.pagelisting li and I still don’t understand why the HTML list code doesn’t take care of the indentation.

    I pretty sure the generic bullet indent is a left indent rather than just a generic indent.
