How to change numbering styles for ordered lists

Ordered lists (ol) are usually numbered in XHTML output using numerals. If you want to change the numbering to alphabetical, follow these steps:

  1. Define a custom outputclass value and set it as an attribute of the ordered list, as in the following example: 
    <ol outputclass="number-alpha">
    <li>A</li>
    <li>B</li>
    <li>C</li>
</ol>
  2. Add the following code snippet in a custom CSS file: 
    ol.number-alpha{
    list-style-type:lower-alpha;
}
  3. Reference the CSS file in a WebHelp Responsive transformation using an Oxygen Publishing Template or the args.css parameter.
