Usage context

Attributes

This element includes the following attributes:

@start

This attribute can manually override the first item in the list so the prefix value is not “1”.

@type

Defines the incrementing values that prefix the list items. Possible values are the following:

• arabic (default)
• loweralpha
• upperalpha
• lowerroman
• upperroman

@role

This attribute can store a semantic or formatting value that can be used for processing, validation or presentation.

Examples

Nested, numbered lists using the default settings:

<nlist>
  <item>First</item>
  <item>Second
    <nlist>
      <item>more</item>
      <item>even more</item>
    </nlist>
  </item>
  <item>third</item>
  <item>fourth</item>
</nlist>

It renders in HTML as:

1. first
2. second
1. more
2. even more
3. third
4. fourth
