I have a company website that has numbered lists. The sequence of the numbers, for example is: 1. XXX

  a. XXX
  b. XX

4. XXX

For some reason it counts the a & b as numbers and displays 4 when it should be 2. Other browsers (Edge and Chrome) display the sequence normally.

Is this about nesting lists ?

<ol>
  <li>first item
    <!-- closing </li> tag is not here! -->
    <ol type='a'>
      <li>first item first subitem</li>
      <li>first item second subitem</li>
    </ol>
  </li>
  <!-- Here's the closing </li> tag -->
  <li>second item</li>
</ol>

Hi cor-el,

Yes, it appears to be an issue with the nesting list. Just to clarify I'm not a coder or programmer, just a user. I'm posting here because this is an issue exclusively when viewing using Firefox browser.

I would like to establish if there's an issue within Firefox, or if I need to recommend something to the website developer, and if so, what would that be?
