Problems closing out nested lists
I'm so close that I can taste it!
Here's my latest aggravation with numbered lists:
I have a nested list that look like this:
1.
2.
bullet
bullet
3.
bullet
bullet
In FM of course it looks perfect. In RH, it looks fine using the Convert AutoNumber to HTML List settings (I got that far at least), but the bullets after the last numbered step do not indent correctly. In fact, they don't indent at all. When I look at the HTML code, I see that the final <ul></ul> is not being nested within the <ol></ol>; the unordered list (those final two bullets) appears AFTER the ordered list is closed out.
I've tried everything I can think of and nothing is working. Has anybody else encountered this problem and been able to overcome it without manually fixing the formatting in RH after the conversion of the FM files? I've even tried adding an empty paragraph tag with numbering properties in FM (with a nonbreaking space so RH picks up the style), and that closes out the nested list correctly in RH but adds a number to the empty paragraph tag after conversion.
A second peculiar problem is that in numbered lists in some help topics, the number characters are in one font, but in other topics, the number character is in a different font. I have found no differences between the two instances of numbers in either my FM files or the RH/CSS.
