SYMPTOMS
Creating a bulleted list and then setting the format to center causes extra spacing between lines.



CAUSE
When the bulleted list is centered, paragraph tags are inserted between the lines causing the extra spacing.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, use either of the following methods.

Method 1: Insert the bulleted list in a table

 * 1) On the Table menu, click Insert Table.
 * 2) Under Size, in both the Row and Columns boxes, type "1" (without the quotation marks).
 * 3) Under Layout, in the Alignment list, select Center. In the Border Size box, type "1" (without the quotation marks). Click OK.
 * 4) Create the bulleted list in the table.

Method 2: Use a WebBot Component

 * 1) Place the insertion point on the line before the bulleted list.
 * 2) On the Insert menu, click Bot, and select HTML Markup.
 * 3) In the HTML Markup dialog box, type " " (without the quotation marks). Click OK.
 * 4) Create and format the bulleted list the way you want. (Do not center the list).
 * 5) Place the insertion point on the line after the bulleted list.
 * 6) On the Insert menu, click Bot. Select the HTML Markup component, and click OK.
 * 7) In the HTML Markup dialog box, type " " (without the quotation marks). Click OK.

The center formatting will not be visible in FrontPage Editor; however, when you view the page in a Web browser that supports the tag, the list will be centered.
