Carole, thank you for your response. No, I wasn’t using categories, but I’ve started. I definitely see the advantage to this now. Basically, everything I ever tried to do with pages should be done with posts and their inherent categories should auto-build the menu.

thank you.

With much embarrassment, , ,

link to failing list

It exists as the last item in the document.

…ok, so maybe the link will work this time.

Thank you for your response.

Apparently, I made a typo when I entered this into the forum post. However, the css was not mispelled.

Here is a snippet taken directly from the html from the “view source” of the offending page

<ol reversed="" start="6">
<li>Item one</li>
<li>Item two</li>
<li>Item three
<ol type="1">
<li>item 3.1</li>
<li>item 3.2</li>
<li>item 3.3</li>
</ol>
<ol type="I">
<li>item 3.1</li>
<li>item 3.2</li>
<li>item 3.3</li>
</ol>
<ol type="i">
<li>item 3.1</li>
<li>item 3.2</li>
<li>item 3.3</li>
</ol>
<ol type="A">
<li>item 3.1</li>
<li>item 3.2</li>
<li>item 3.3</li>
</ol>
<ol type="a">
<li>item 3.1</li>
<li>item 3.2</li>
<li>item 3.3</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>item four</li>
</ol>

The purpose here was only to test my ability to control the orderd list type within a wordpress page.

Here is a portion of the css, navigated to from the show source:

/*ol, ul {

list-style: none;
}*/

ol.a { list-style-type: lower-alpha; }
ol.i { list-style-type: lower-roman; }

Yes, I did put this directly in style.css. I customized my theme a year or so ago and haven’t dealt with it since. Where is the correct place to have put my mods?

I have since removed the problem html/css because I couldn’t get it to format to my specifications, but I’d love to know how to achieve this.
