I have only ever encountered regular websites using the 1,2,3,4,… numbering. I do frequently look at non english websites because of my study of IDNs. > > Anybody encountered any regular websites using international list numbering? If you have can you please post links as I would like to show them to my students (and I would like to see them myself :)). I have only ever encountered regular websites using the 1,2,3,4,… numbering. The spec is currently only implemented in Firefox, and only recently, so I wouldn't expect it to be much used in the wild. It should be possible to find examples of the predefined counter styles in the wild, though. I'll see if I can get ahold of that webdevdata thing (a big zip of lots of web page sources) and grep for some of that. ~TJ
