I created a topic and added a hyperlink to another topic. The hyperlinked topic included a hyperlink to another topic that included numbered steps. When the web help is generated the numbering is missing from the steps. What do I need to do to have the numbering appear? The styles are correct so it isn't a CSS problem.

Are the numbers missing when you open from the link or are they also missing when you open the topic directly?
Can you post some of the HTML of the topic? That can give us a clue as to what is going on. Also, what is the CSS? Just to make sure.

The numbers are missing when we open the link not when we open the topic.
I can't give you the web address to html, is there a way to attach a document?
The CSS is one we created.

Perhaps this will help. The hyperlinks were created using the DHTML drop down text menu option. I checked the HTML and the numbering style is there along with the other styles used. Here is an abbreviated version of the problem topic:

I did not resolve the problem with the dropdowns within dropdowns losing numbering, but worked around it by incorporating the last dropdowns into the original topic and removing the offending dropdown.
