Comments on Numbering Display Bug

Numbering Display Bug

+5

I think there is a bug with a final text numbering not matching the numbering in the preview.

I recently posted this answeron meta. When I edit the question the preview of the text displays correct numbering but once the edit is saved the numbering is displayed incorrectly (possibly connected to this older bug?)

Here is a picture showing the error. The first half is the display when the post is being edited, and the second half when the answer is posted:

example of bug where the first half is the display when it is being edited, and second half when the answer has been posted.

This is a test with known input.

  1. First entry in ordered list.
  2. Second ordered list entry.
    • First entry in subordinate list under point 2.
    • Second unordered list entry.
  3. Third entry in outer ordered list.
  4. Outer list entry 4.
  1. First entry in second ordered list.
  2. Outer list 2, entry 2.
    1. Entry 1 of subordinate list in outer list 2, entry 2.
    2. Second entry of subordinate ordered list.
  3. Back to outer list 2. This should be entry 3.

All the above looks correct in the preview. Using HTML <ol>, <ul>, and <li> tags.

The above looks as expected. The example above therefore does not reproduce the bug.

Thanks, for your answer. I think that in the mean time the bug got fixed. The screenshots above showcase the bug but I just tried to edit my post today and the bug is no longer present. I guess the bug got fixed and nobody just took time to post answer to this question.

I also noticed that now my question has status completed tag - did not realized that it got new tags I thought I would get some notification for that

@1muffon1 I didn't realize that a tag-only edit didn't generate a notification. Sorry! Yes, we found and fixed this bug recently. (That's the exclusive "we"; I didn't do anything except convey the news. The actual credit goes to others.)

@Monica: I didn't notice until now that the question is 3 months old. When you folks fix something, it would be worth adding and answer, even if all it says it "Fixed". Tags are easy to not notice. I guess it was the addition of the tag that got this post bumped so that I noticed it.
