You might show us an example of the code you're using; the description you give is certainly correct and I've used it extensively. It's solid web standards way of programming and believe me, will make your code more maintainable down the road. Here's the syntax I would use. If you have any trouble, check back.
Code:
<ol>
<li>
This is the 1st item in the main list.
</li>
<li>
This is the 2nd item in the main list. Note how it is inside the li tags of the main list, but outside the nested list. This will create the effect of having the unordered nested list appear below the 2nd item in the main list (presumably providing additional details.
<ul>
<li>
This is the 1st item in the nested list. Note how the entire nested list comes after the opening li tag of the 2nd item in the main list, but before the closing tag of the 2nd item in the main list.
</li>
<li>
This is the 2nd item in the nested list.
<li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
This is the 3rd item in the main list.
</li>
</ol>
