Indicates the current number of items in an ordered list as defined by the <ol> element. Regardless of the value of type being used to set Roman numerals or letters, the only allowed value for this attribute is a number. List items that follow will continue numbering from the value set. The value attribute has no meaning for unordered lists.

type Deprecated

Indicates the numbering type: a indicates lowercase letters, A indicates uppercase letters, i indicates lowercase Roman numerals, I indicates uppercase Roman numerals, and 1 indicates numbers. Type set in an <ol> element is used for the entire list unless a type attribute is used within an enclosed <li> element. This attribute is deprecated, use CSS list-style-type property instead.
