Can ordered list produce result that looks like 1 1 1 2 1 3 instead of just 1 2 3 with css

Question

Can an ordered list produce results that looks like 1 1  1 2  1 3  instead of just 1  2  3       with CSS  So far  using list-style-type decimal has produced only 1  2  3   not 1 1  1 2   1 3

The solutions posted here did not work well for me, so I did a mixture of the ones of this question and the following question: Is it possible to create multi-level ordered list in HTML?

/* Numbered lists like 1, 1.1, 2.2.1... */
ol li {display:block;} /* hide original list counter */
ol > li:first-child {counter-reset: item;} /* reset counter */
ol > li {counter-increment: item; position: relative;} /* increment counter */
ol > li:before {content:counters(item, ".") ". "; position: absolute; margin-right: 100%; right: 10px;} /* print counter */

Result:

I needed to add this to the solution posted in 12 as I was using a list with a mixture of ordered list and unordered lists components  content  no-close-quote seems like an odd thing to add I know  but it works     ol ul li before       content  no-close-quote      counter-increment  none      display  list-item      margin-right  100       position  absolute      right  10px

None of solutions on this page works correctly and universally for all levels and long  wrapped  paragraphs  It   s really tricky to achieve a consistent indentation due to variable size of marker  1   1 2  1 10  1 10 5        it can   t be just    faked     not even with a precomputed margin padding for each possible indentation level     I finally figured out a solution that actually works and doesn   t need any JavaScript   It   s tested on Firefox 32  Chromium 37  IE 9 and Android Browser  Doesn t work on IE 7 and previous   CSS   ol     list-style-type  none    counter-reset  item    margin  0    padding  0     ol  gt  li     display  table    counter-increment  item    margin-bottom  0 6em     ol  gt  li before     content  counters item               display  table-cell    padding-right  0 6em         li ol  gt  li     margin  0     li ol  gt  li before     content  counters item                Example    Try it on JSFiddle  fork it on Gist

You can use counters to do so      The following style sheet numbers nested list items as  1    1 1    1 1 1   etc   OL   counter-reset  item   LI   display  block   LI before   content  counters item            counter-increment  item      Example    x000D   x000D  ol   counter-reset  item   x000D  li  display  block   x000D  li before   content  counters item            counter-increment  item   x000D   lt ol gt  x000D     lt li gt li element x000D       lt ol gt  x000D         lt li gt sub li element lt  li gt  x000D         lt li gt sub li element lt  li gt  x000D         lt li gt sub li element lt  li gt  x000D       lt  ol gt  x000D     lt  li gt  x000D     lt li gt li element lt  li gt  x000D     lt li gt li element x000D       lt ol gt  x000D         lt li gt sub li element lt  li gt  x000D         lt li gt sub li element lt  li gt  x000D         lt li gt sub li element lt  li gt  x000D       lt  ol gt  x000D     lt  li gt  x000D   lt  ol gt  x000D   x000D   x000D    See Nested counters and scope for more information

The chosen answer is a great start  but it essentially forces list-style-position  inside  styling on the list items  making wrapped text hard to read  Here s a simple workaround that also gives control over the margin between the number and text  and right-aligns the number as per the default behaviour   ol       counter-reset  item    ol li       display  block      position  relative    ol li before       content  counters item               counter-increment  item      position  absolute      margin-right  100       right  10px     space between number and text        JSFiddle  http   jsfiddle net 3J4Bu
