BEFORE (without CSS):
1. MY NAME IS ANDREAS LIVE IN MEDAN
Both lines start at the same left edge after the number.
AFTER (with text-indent: -20px; padding-left: 20px; applied to the <li>):
-
MY NAME IS ANDREAS
LIVE IN MEDAN
The second (wrapped) line is indented, creating a “hanging indent” effect.
Explanation:
padding-left: 20px;moves the entire content of the list item 20px to the right.text-indent: -20px;moves the first line 20px back to the left, so it aligns perfectly with the number.- All additional (wrapped) lines remain indented by 20px.
This technique is commonly used for lists and bibliographies to make multi-line items visually aligned and easier to read.
