It used to be in the HTML specification. It's now deprecated.

http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/lists.html#h-10.2

But I think browsers still use it. I haven't got a theme to test on, maybe someone else can confirm? While it works, I like having this in bbpress: it's useful and non-validation in this way is trivial. Otherwise, in a theme with post numbers clearly visible, they'd just run from 1-30 every page. That's nonsensical.

Confirm with Kakumei and Kakumei Blue themes

It works in FF2 and 3.

  • priority changed from normal to lowest.

The alternative is to get clever with CSS2 counters: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/generate.html#counters

Feel free to submit a patch.

Actually, kakumei does not display any numbers at all anymore, so we can probably get rid of it in the default template and let theme authors do their own thing.

  • status changed from new to closed.
