Thanks, Robert. Sensible suggestion. As it happens, these lists
won't be on the web and we are covered as far as browser support.
No problem. In that case, my comment is not applicable to your
situation. I tend to look for hidden assumptions in other replies (as
in this case) and point them out so the final solution is a fit.
There is nothing worse than to make the effort to implement a
solution only to find that there is a caveat on its usage that was
not mentioned. This habit, as in this case, causes me to make
comments that are unnecessary. OTOH, someone who is lurking here who
has a similar need my find my warning of use in avoiding a pitfall of
assuming that there is no hidden caveats to the counter-increment
method.

Yes! Thanks. For some reason, I had never before come across
counter-increment. That will work perfectly for me.

Just remember that using counter-increment assumes that the user has a
browser that supports this tag. A better solution that does not rely
on the user having a compliant browser is to have the page generated
via PHP (so you can generate the counter on the fly. All that is
needed is to replace the <dt> tags with a php function call that
increments a counter and then outputs <dt>$Counter .
