Hi Geoff,

You've had some good suggestions already. Here's another I have used.
Only works if your numbers are single digits (1 -9) though:
HTML
<ol>
<li>1 some text here</li>
<li>2 some more text that can span longer than one line</li>
</ol>
CSS
ol { list-style: none; padding-left: 2em; text-indent: -1em;}
li:first-letter { float: left; font-size: ??; color: white; background:
orange; line-height: 1.0; ...}
Problem:
Does not degrade well with CSS off. The sequence number appears twice.
You could use UL for better degradation, perhaps?
Works in IE 5.5+ and other browsers I have tried. (Not IE 5.01 Win though).
Cordially, David
