CSS problems with list styles

[Matze]

there is something strange in the neighborhood

In my PDF outptut the lower-alpha list style class does not work, which is strange: The lower-alpha letters will be shown as upper-alpha letters instead.

Code: Select all

ol.abc	/* Kleine Buchstaben - Media Print */
	{
		list-style-type: lower-alpha;
	}

	ol.abc_haeng	/* Kleinen Buchstaben, hängender Einzug - Media Print */
{
		list-style-type: lower-alpha;
}

	ol.ABC	/* Großen Buchstaben - Media Print */
{
		list-style-type: upper-alpha;
}

	ol.ABC_haeng	/* Großen Buchstaben, hängender Einzug - Media Print */
{
		list-style-type: upper-alpha;
}

When looking in Flare`s stylesheet editor, there is something strange:


When changing the list-style-type from the ABC class, it will also change the list-style-type from the abc class.
It looks like a copied class which will be changed afterwards

Is this a new thing you're doing with your lists or an existing stylesheet that USED to work previously?

I'm wondering whether CSS is case-sensitive, too. So the reason your lower-case lists come out as upper-case is because ol.ABC comes later in the stylesheet than ol.abc.

Try changing your list names to ol.klein/ol.klein_haeng and ol.gross/ol.gross_haeng and see if that makes a difference.

As a general rule, CSS selectors are not case sensitive - ABC and abc are counted as the same style, so the second occurrence overwrites the first one. You've been lulled into a false sense of security because the text/Flare interface shows two separate styles, which in fact it's only one.
