List-style-type: none on unorderer lists renders as circle in PDF output

Aspose.Words Product Family
1

I have HTML (which I cannot change easily) together with CSS that styles some ul elements with list-style-type:none. Loading this into Aspose.Words 15.5 and converting to PDF renders filled circles in the Output instead of “nothing”.



I found, in this Forum, feature WORDSNET-6795 which, in http://www.aspose.com/community/files/51/.net-components/aspose.words-for-.net/entry435076.aspx, explicitlty mentions only support for ordered lists.



What can I do short of preprocessing my HTML to apply a type=“none” to the relevant ul’s?

I have checked my Scenario with Version 16.2 of Aspose.Words and the circle is still rendered.

The source of the styling Information is a CSS-file, not the style attribute of the ul element itself.

When I apply the style Attribute to the ul explicitly, everything Looks as intended.

    Hi Tahir,



    I reviewed the html / css: the css rule applies to the li element, not to the containing ul. I’m preplexed and sorry for not mentioning this in the initial description.



    I could not figure out how to quote HTML in this Forum, so I attached a sample file demonstrating the issue.

    Hi Tahir,



    this becomes embarrassing for me :slight_smile:



    In the attached HTML, the CSS selector was wrong (#on-li .li instead of #on-li li)



    Find attached a corrected version.
