If you your type you can use a more advance link [[1][a)]. But that's not very nice. Perhaps, css counters is the way to go: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/CSS/Counters (I did a quick search and I'm not sure css is powerful enough). In any case, I think it's a fair feature request, but it's a "html bug/deficit". If we know how to do it in "hand-written" html it can relatively easily be added to ox-html or incorporated locally via a filter. –Rasmus -- m-mm-mmm-mmmm bacon! ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 17+ messages in thread

As pointed out by Rasmus in this thread, there is a cross-reference mechanism in the export framework. 1. <<something>> Item 1. 2. Reference to item [[something]]. It will work in any back-end, but obviously, will ignore alphabetical lists (link will always appear as a number). Speaking of those, my opinion is we should drop them altogether, as they are just (dubious) syntactic sugar, but some users will always expect them to be more than that.

But I did some investigation into alpha lists and I wanted to expand a bit on that. I looked at your earlier question and the latex question a bit and I have a patch that implements something like what you want. However, I'm not advocating that org actually implement this. In fact, there are good reasons *not* to implement it (at least not in this form). In the patch, there is a change in the parser so that it recognizes an ordered-alpha list (in addition to the ordered, etc. lists it was already recognizing). Then there are minor changes to ox-html.el: basically ordered and ordered-alpha trigger the same response from the exporter, except in one case: the opening of an ordered-alpha list includes the ``type="a"'' thing. NB: the patch does not address any of the other exporters. However, the type="a" thingie in <ol> is a bad idea: it is deprecated in the HTML spec, so it would be foolish to go chasing after it in org. Here's what the spec says: #+BEGIN_QUOTE For the OL element, possible values for the type attribute are summarized in the table below (they are case-sensitive): Type Numbering style 1 arabic numbers 1, 2, 3, ... a lower alpha a, b, c, ... A upper alpha A, B, C, ... i lower roman i, ii, iii, ... I upper roman I, II, III, ... Note that the type attribute is deprecated and list styles should be handled through style sheets. For example, using CSS, one may specify that the style of numbers for list elements in a numbered list should be lowercase roman numerals. In the excerpt below, every OL element belonging to the class "withroman" will have roman numerals in front of its list items. <STYLE type="text/css"> OL.withroman { list-style-type: lower-roman } </STYLE> <BODY> <OL class="withroman"> <LI> Step one ... <LI> Step two ... </OL> </BODY> #+END_QUOTE See http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/lists.html#type-values. Even if it were not deprecated, a good implementation would require org to be able to generate all the values, which would probably require YAUO (yet another user option). What org *could* do is to generate some discriminant (the "withroman" thing above) so that the proper CSS could be applied. Right now, there is no such capability I believe. It could be done with YAUO, but I, for one, think org has too many of those: we certainly don't need more unless it is *really* necessary. Here's the patch if you still want it: the only use for it as far as I'm concerned is "educational": [-- Warning: decoded text below may be mangled, UTF-8 assumed --] [-- Attachment #2: Alpha lists in the html exporter --] [-- Type: text/x-diff, Size: 1905 bytes --] diff --git a/lisp/org-list.el b/lisp/org-list.el index 86afe11..7a606f0 100644 --- a/lisp/org-list.el +++ b/lisp/org-list.el @@ -1022,7 +1022,8 @@ Possible types are `descriptive', `ordered' and `unordered'.

If you mean "easily" on the LaTeX side, then yes, check out the "enumitem" package. Example: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{enumitem} \begin{document} \begin{enumerate}[label={Item number \arabic*:}] \item First. \item Second. \end{enumerate} \end{document} But definitely check out the docs for that package, it is really good, and supports much more than this. > Thanks for clarification and example. > > Michael Hth, -- Marcin Borkowski http://octd.wmi.amu.edu.pl/en/Marcin_Borkowski Adam Mickiewicz University ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 17+ messages in thread
