Description: While editing text we use the # key to make numbered points. For example, "top ten cities" is my topic. If I only include the name in the first five cities, then the next five lines aren't just 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, rather on line 6 the number 6 is extra dark/hard to read. Some mistake I believe. Help?

Should look like:

  1. New York
  2. Boston
  3. Miami
  4. Los Angeles
  5. Chicago
  6. unknown
  7. unknown

  8. #
    #

Actually looks like:

  1. New York
  2. Boston
  3. Miami
  4. Los Angeles
  5. Chicago
  6. (but the six is darker, as if multiple numbers in same place, and no numbers to follow)

even the above example is coming out a mess, but this time with the 7-10 showing as the # sign, not the number.

  • without linebrakes it looks fine in both konqueror and firefox. CarlosAB January 03, 2009, at 03:50 PM

It is not a PmWiki bug, it is how browsers render lists items with no text. Just remove the empty items 6-10, or add some character after the #, for example a dash -, a question mark ? or the non-breakable space   which is invisible in browsers. --Petko July 07, 2009, at 08:48 PM
