The list-item keyword causes the element to generate a ::marker pseudo-element with the content specified by its list-style properties (for example a bullet point) together with a principal box of the specified type for its own contents.
Syntax
A single value of list-item will cause the element to behave like a list item. This can be used together with list-style-type and list-style-position.
list-item can also be combined with any <display-outside> keyword and the flow or flow-root <display-inside> keywords.
Note: In browsers that support the two-value syntax, if no inner value is specified it will default to flow. If no outer value is specified, the principal box will have an outer display type of block.
Examples
HTML
<div class="fake-list">I will display as a list item</div>
CSS
.fake-list {
display: list-item;
list-style-position: inside;
}
