I think all HTML markups can be displayed in QuickTips. But it seems like it cannot display bullet points (by using ul, li). Is that true? Can somebody confirm it for me? Thanks.

i dont know if quicktips support lists, what i know is that ext overrides the most default-html tags in his ext-all.css, like ol and ul for example. maybe thats the reason why it is not showed correctly.

Correct, the default Ext stylesheet (derived from the YUI reset stylesheet) removes all formatting from the ul/li tags, so you need to explicitly style them as needed. The reason for this has been discussed in other threads if you're interested (basically, padding, margins, etc. default differently in different browsers, so from a framework perspective it's better to default everything to a cross-browser baseline and have the developer set them explicitly when needed).

FYI, I just saw that YUI will be coming out with a new base CSS file in 2.3 (to be included after reset.css) that will reintroduce some common formatting like lists that people normally want. This could be something to look at to save a little time. Of course, you can always just create your own base CSS with your personal formatting preferences and have it ready to drop into each project after ext-all.css.
