Hi everyone,

I have a strange issue with ordered list and sub ordered list, the numbering is inconsistant.

See pics for version "text" and "html" version.

The sub
    is part of the main
      but not included in the
    1. . Thunderbird do :
        <li>n°1 - main level
             <li>n°2 - main level
        <li>n°3 - main level
          <li>n°1 - second level <li>n°2 - second level
        <li>n°3 - main level (should be n°4) <li>n°4 - main level (should be n°5)
      The correct
        should be :
          <li>n°1 - main level
               <li>n°2 - main level
               <li>n°3 - main level
          
            <li>n°1 - second level <li>n°2 - second level
          <li>n°4 - main level <li>n°5 - main level

        I had to instal a plugin to edit the HTML

        Thanks !

That's because internal OL should be inside LI, not outside.

I know, but it like Thunderbird create it. Not really cool... It sound like a bug.

I have to edit the OL myself with a plugin (I'm webdeveloper), when I put the LI closer at the right place, it's ok.

But it should be automatic.

I didn't find a place to report bugs, do you know where I could drop this ?
