Possible Values
sLocation String that specifies one of the following values:
none No image is specified. url(sURL) Location of the image, where sURL is an absolute or relative URL. The property is read/write with a default value of none; the cascading style sheets (CSS) attribute is inherited.

Remarks
When the image is available, it replaces the marker that is set with the listStyleType marker.
If the left margin of the list item is set to 0 using one of the margin properties, the list-item markers do not show. The margin should be set to a minimum of 30 points.
