I want to have the table left aligned, there is nothing wrong with the
table. And the bullets shall surround the table. But I don't want to have
the bullets overlapping the table, that's "wrong". I just don't know if this
is a rendering problem of the browsers, or if it could be fixed within the
CSS. 

I could add "margin-right: 1.5em;" to the style "table" in file
\skins\monobook\main.css as a quick fix. But the margin is not needed (not
wanted) with not left-aligned table.

Sorry - the table is left aligned by default...remove align=left and it will
work:


{| border="1pt"
| Test
|}

* Bullet
* Bullet
* Bullet
* Bullet
* Bullet
