Powers-that-lurk:

Tried to incorporate an <ol> list in a post today, but it failed to work properly. I wrote:

<ol type="A">
<li>Thing</li>
<li>Another thing</li>
</ol>

What I got:

1. Thing
2. Another thing

What I should have gotten:

A. Thing
B. Another thing

I request that you fix the tag so that this works. I presume the original HTML tag construct is preferable to allowing limited CSS styles, but if that was also available, that'd be okay too. I'm also making the assumption that CSS styles are not currently available, which I suppose could be wrong. :)

If you're in there making <ol> work anyway, probably should also address "start=X" and "reversed" as well.

One of the things I really like about Soylent is that it works better than That Other Place. More, please.

Thanks.

    Almost certainly a cached CSS file. Should clear up eventually or you can force refresh. Double checked in six browsers and I get A/B in all of them.

    Thanks, force-refresh solved the issue.
    Thanks for testing extensively, despite the likelihood of PEBKAC.
