7.2.1.1. The start attribute
Normally, browsers automatically number ordered list items beginning
with the Arabic numeral 1. The
start
attribute for the
<ol>
tag lets you
change that beginning value. To start numbering a list at 5, for example:
<ol start=5>
<li> This is item number 5.</li>
<li> This is number 6!</li>
<li> And so forth...</li>
</ol>
