What about using ULs in this case? (That's how I originally marked up
my example; should have left it like that!) How would a screen-reader
read this:
<ul>
<li>1 - Aardvark</li>
<li>2 - Banshee</li>
<li>3 - Cicada</li>
</ul>
I don't have access to jaws or the like, but what about
semantics? Is it an unordered list made to look like an ordered
list, or an ordered list using the wrong element?
Do I hear definition list... Where each section heading (numbers
and all) is the "defined term". Maybe. Put a span inside the dt
(for the number) and give it a width? And put a margin on the dd
equal to that span?
Or what about simple normal every-day headings? We can go up to
6 levels deep with them...
I guess it all depends on the application.
