If you take the image out of line 55, which is:

<IMG ALIGN=left SRC="im-common/pinellas.jpg" WIDTH="360" HEIGHT="660"
BORDER="0" alt="Map">

then the bullets and indenting come back. If you just remove ALIGN=left from
the img tag, the bullets and indenting also come back, but the lists start
after the picture. 

So, while I can't tell you WHY it's happening, it appears that ALIGN=left is
the culprit.

I'm wondering if there isn't a bit much going on in that general area of the
page (a paragraph tag followed by an image tag, followed by center, followed
by H2, followed by UL) but removing these other items one by one did not
bring back the bullets/indents.

Why not try putting the image in one table cell and the headings and ULs in
another?

I just noticed that a client page build ages ago is not rendering correctly 
in IE5, but it still works fine in Netscape 4!

The problem area is the table of contents to the right of the map on
http://www.IslandTime.com/imperial/index.shtml

The table is currently constructed with embedded <UL>'s,   - you will note 
there is no indenting and no bullets!

I've tried adding </LI>, tried changing the top level to <DL>, <DT> & 
<DD>'s, only embedding the lowest level <UL>'s,
and it continues to render without any indents!
