I’m using an externally loaded txt file for my sites text, and I need some bullets on one of the pages. I know the HTML for a bulleted list- but the bullets always show up black- which is the color of my background.

Is there a way to change that?

The Glyphs I’ve used for bullets always turn into something else when I preview it.

any ideas?
