Ordered lists <ol> appear in wrong font, text is OK

[Guest]

Whenever I try and use <ol>, the numbers themselves preview (and publish) in
Times New Roman whereas the text is in courier?? Design view displays
courier but preview is TNR (Default font is courier)

Also, regardless of what size/pitch i choose for the text, the numbers don't
get any larger. finally, is there a way to double space the numbering but
not the text.

I am able to all this in MS Word 2003 but not FP 2003

Any suggestions?

Word is a Word Processing application whereas FP is a HTML Editor and HTML just doesn't support
everything that can be to a document in a Word Processing or Desktop Publishing application.

Look at the code.

Murray, Thank you, that helped. One more question, you identified four
different fonts sizes (x-small, small, medium, and large), is there a way to
specify an exact pitch (e.g. 12 or 14)?

 

[Murray]

Yes, but why? It'll never stay exact on the web.

Thanks again, It took me a bunch of attempts but I managed to figure out how
it works, I specified the pitch in the <style> section. I would not have
figured it out without looking at your code. I'm kinda new at this.

You must be a print designer. Pitch is useless on the web. I can change the
font size to my wishes on any modern browser - and your careful tuning of
pitch goes right out the window. That's why I usually use font size names.
Make it whatever size you want....
