Certain versions of Outlook have issues when using the ul tag with bullet points not appearing.
So if the following was placed in an email html template, you would see nothing except the text.
<ul>
<li>Point 1</li>
<li>Point 2</li>
<li>Point 3</li>
</ul>The easiest solution is to use a table and the bullet point html character (•).
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top">•</td>
<td valign="top">Point 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">•</td>
<td valign="top">Point 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top">•</td>
<td valign="top">Point 3</td>
</tr>
</table>Here are both examples, remembering that you would need to use CSS to make them look similar:
UL Tags (Don't work in Outlook) |
Table (Do work in Outlook) |
||||||
