I need to format a text outline, similar to legal text with nested,
numbered paragraph lists...
The {content: } property does not seem to be well implemented, even in
Mozilla 1.1 (or I'm growing gremlins between me ears).
Anyway, for backward compatibility's sake I can think of two scenarios:
1 use two column nested tables with first column having the
paragraph number and the second the actual content
(that's what I'm implementing)
2 leave the paras as <p></p> with the numbers added manually
then adding a :first-line css rule for 5+ browsers to
indent out the first line.
any valid arguments in favour of one or the other, or maybe a different
scheme?
thanks
