Set format of ordered lists: 1/a/i

Forums / Questions
Simon says:

Is it possible to set the default format of ordered lists, so that they appear as:

  1. decimal
    1. lower-alpha

                                                              i.      lower-roman

rather than:

  1. decimal
    1. decimal
      1. decimal

 

I can change the formal of each list using 'Edit CSS style' on the Edit Content page, but would rather change the default format for the whole wiki.

To do this I added the following lines to the CSS style sheet:

OL        { list-style-type: decimal }  /* A B C D E etc. */
 OL OL     { list-style-type: lower-alpha }      /* 1 2 3 4 5 etc. */
 OL OL OL  { list-style-type: lower-roman }  /* i ii iii iv v etc. */

I got the answer from:

http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/css/classification/list-style-type.html

My above reply should have read:

OL        { list-style-type: decimal }  /* 1 2 3 4 5 etc. */
OL OL     { list-style-type: lower-alpha }      /* a b c d e etc. */
OL OL OL  { list-style-type: lower-roman }  /* i ii iii iv v etc. */

Simon,

That's a great idea. I'll get this added to the skins so it will be there by default in the future.

Cheers,
Matt
