How can I remove indents from my <ul> lists in css?

Last updated: 02/07/2012

The default indent on an unordered list is often too much. To back it out a bit, use this css tag:

margin-left: -15px;
margin-right: -15px;

The negative number will push the bullets left from their default position. The margin-right parameter pushes out the text further right, if you want your list wider. Just add this to the <li> tag or class within your list.
