Template:Ordered list

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

This template creates an ordered list, which is similar to a numbered list but may display other characters, such as roman numbers or alphabet letters, instead of the decimal enumerator.

Syntax

Simple

{{Ordered list |entry1 |entry2 ... }}

Offset starting value

{{Ordered list |start=start|entry1 |entry2 ... |item1_style=CSS1 |item2_style=CSS2 ... }}

Changing the symbol style

{{Ordered list |list_style_type=type |entry1 |entry2 ... }}

With CSS style

{{Ordered list |item_style=CSS-all |entry1 |entry2 ... }}

With separate CSS styles for each item

{{Ordered list |entry1 |item1_style=CSS1 |entry2 |item2_style=CSS2 ... }}

With custom values for each item

{{Ordered list |item1_value=value1 |entry1 |item2_value=value2 |entry2 ... }}
