Yeah, when you have only one (affected) list on the page Opera works
fine, most of the time. Once you have two lists or more, the results
are interesting to say the least, and even vary depending on the state
of the stock market, the amount of sunlight or whatever. Completely
unpredictable, anyway.
As I said, bug in Opera, and I don't know any fix on our side. Iirc, I
filed a bugreport with Opera some years ago.
using
ol {counter-reset: itemnr;}
li {display:block;}
li:before {
content: counter(itemnr, decimal) ". ";
counter-increment: itemnr;
}
works fine, but of course you don't get the fancy numbering scheme
(1.1, 2.1.3, etc). Could just as well use list-style-type.
