## Ordered (i.e. numbered) Lists

Ordered (i.e. numbered) lists take the form:

        <OL>
    	  <LI> ... first list item
    	  <LI> ... second list item
    	  ...
    	</OL>

The `OL` `START` attribute can be used to initialize the sequence number (by default it is initialized to 1). You can set it later on with the `VALUE` attribute on `LI` elements. Both of these attributes expect integer values. You can't indicate that numbering should be continued from a previous list, or to skip missing values without giving an explicit number.

The `COMPACT` attribute can be used as a hint to the user agent to render lists in a more compact style. The `OL` `TYPE` attribute allows you to set the numbering style for list items:

Type | Numbering style
--- | ---
1 | Arabic numbers | 1, 2, 3, ...
a | lower alpha | a, b, c, ...
A | upper alpha | A, B, C, ...
i | lower roman | i, ii, iii, ...
I | upper roman | I, II, III, ...
