The only other thing you can do is enter the type in the <OL> & <UL> tags
such as <OL type="1"> <UL type="disc">
DreamWeaver has a tendancy to add code to things and somewhere it may have
added  extra code or it is possible that you have a tag elsewhere on the
page that you did not close and therefore its causing the error.

Importance: High



Here is some additional information.  If I remove the nested list and leave
my code as: 
<ol> 
                <li>Coordinate with OIT's...</li> 
                <li>Submit your Technology...</li> 
                <li>Consult with OIT ... </li> 
</ol> 

I still only have bulletted entries in IE 5.0 
============================================================================
==========================

I have an orderd list with an unordered list nested inside it.  However,
when I view in IE 5.01 all I see are unordered bullets.  I am not seeing my
ordered lines numbered.  My editor (DreamWeaver)has a preview pane and the
lines appear numbered there.   

What I want to see is the following: 
1.        Coordinate with OIT.... 
2.        Submit your Technology .... 
* * *Wait "Chief Counsel" for legal opinion. 
* * *Business Interface Representative (BIR) 
* * *Business Interface Technology Representative (BITR) 
3.        Consult with OIT for cost estimates ..... 

What I end up with is.... 
*        Coordinate with OIT.... 
*        Submit your Technology .... 
* * *Wait "Chief Counsel" for legal opinion. 
* * *Business Interface Representative (BIR) 
* * *Business Interface Technology Representative (BITR) 
*        Consult with OIT for cost estimates ..... 

My HTML code looks like: 
<ol> 
                <li>Coordinate with OIT's...</li> 
                <li>Submit your Technology...</li> 
                  <ul> 
                    <li> "Chief Counsel" for legal opinion</li> 
                    <li>Business Interface Representative (BIR)</li> 
                    <li>Business Interface Technology Representative
(BITR)</li> 
                  </ul> 
                <li>Consult with OIT ... </li> 
</ol> 

Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong? 

Thanks, 
KMW
