           Summary: {Display:list-item} on n-list HTML elements, does not
                    (anylonger) cause incremental numbering
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+ (nightly)
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://lenk.no/uppmerkt/display-list-item-number-
                    generation-bug.html
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: CSS
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at opendarwin.org
        ReportedBy: hyperlekken at lenk.no


If one giv an HTML element the CSS display property div{display:list-item},
divs that follows one by another, should be numbered like in a regular OL-list.
And that is how it works in the released version of Safari (version 2.0.3 —
build 417.9.2). 

But in the nighly builds of the last mont (for instance the build of 25th of
April), this no longer works.

This makes WEbKit an exception to Internet Explorer 5 (Mac OS X), Internet
Explorer 6 (Windows), Opera 9beta and iCab. (Unfortunately, it doesn't work in
Firefox either.)

So clearly WebKit is on the wrong track here. 

A  major severity bug a) because it is important to get generated content to
work properly, b) it is especially important to make generated content work
with the help of display:list-item, as this is also compatible with Internet
Explorer - which otherwise does not support generated content. c) It breaks
previous functionality of WebKit
