> In my original message, <ul> should have been <ol>. Sorry for the * confusion. The reason I posted this message, is because I believe there * is no way using current xhtml standards to have items in a list to be * numbered in reverse order, and I need this capability. See http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/generate.html#counters The only thing this doesn't do is count the number of items, but that introduces the back-tracking/look ahead issues. Note, though that this is not using HTML or XHTML; it is using CSS, as you did, in your example. If the numbers have semantic significance, you want to follow the "Against 'start' and 'value' attributes" thread on the www-html list. (The original for this may be pending moderation, as an unsubscribed posting. The behaviour wanted was for the numbers to be reversed but the items not.)
