HTML <ol> type Attribute

Example

<ol type="i">
  <li>One</li>
  <li>Two</li>
  <li>Three</li>
</ol>

Try this code ❯

Meaning

The type attribute specifies the numbering type

The specified type is used for the entire list unless a different type attribute is used on an enclosed <li> element.

Note: Unless the type of the list number matters (like legal or technical documents where items are referenced by their number/letter), use the CSS list-style-type property instead.

Standard Syntax

<ol type="1|a|A|i|I">
