The <ol> tag
<ol> creates an ordered list where the sequence of items matters.
Syntax
<ol start="1">...</ol>Attributes
| start | The number the list numbering begins at (default 1). |
| reversed | Reverses the numbering direction (counting down instead of up). |
| type | "1", "a", "A", "i", "I" — the marker format (digits, letters, Roman numerals). |
Example
<ol start="5" type="a">
<li>Item e</li>
<li>Item f</li>
</ol>
Notes
- type sets the STARTING numbering format for the whole list — it's a presentational attribute; for more control, use CSS list-style-type.
