If you are writing a DocBook document, you need to add a continuation="continues" attribute to the second <orderedlist>. When you do this, you'll have what you want when you'll convert your documents to HTML, PDF, etc, because Norman Walsh's XSL style sheets support this feature. Now, when editing the document in XXE, you'll not see the items of the second <orderedlist> numbered 4, 5, 6. Why? Because we just support simple, non-procedural, non-standard, counters in our implementation of CSS. See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/docs/csssupport/ch02s01.html --- PS: This, of course, can be done if you program a style sheet extension in Java[tm].
