Hi:
In the good-old just-html days, if you had an ordered list going and
wanted to interrupt it for a graphic, you could start it up again
without losing count by using a "start=" attribute, such as:
<ol>
<li>
This is my first item.
</li>
</ol>
This is a graphic.
<ol start=2>
<li>
This is my second item.
</li>
and so on.
However, the "start=" attribute has been depreciated in favor of the
"counter-reset" and "counter-increment" properties, as described:
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/generate.html#propdef-counter-reset
However, I'm lost trying to figure out what that's all about.
Does anyone have a simple example that works for the type of problem
I described above?
And, for sake of argument, what was the reason for changing this easy
to apply/understand attribute to something that isn't? I can
understand trying to separate presentation from content, but this
seems a bit counter-productive, doesn't it? Or, am I missing
something?
Thanks for your interest and reply.
