What is the best way to do bullet lists and numbered lists in POD?

Given the following pod file, test.pod:

=head1 This is a test of bullet points =over 4 =item * this is bullet point 1 =item * this is bullet point 2 =back =over 4 =item 1 this is numbered point 1 =item 1 this is numbered point 2 =back
when I run:
pod2html test.pod >f.html
the generated f.html looks fine in Internet Explorer but not in Firefox, where the text of the bullet point seems to be on the next line to the bullet point mark (at least that's what I see).

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
