Hi Daniel,

Numbered list syntax is one of the biggest weak points

wrestling with it: just use HTML for numbered lists.
<ol>
<li>...</li>

Thanks for that! I'm new to Mediawiki and thought it was "bad practice"
to use HTML syntax, so other than <pre>, I've been staying away from it
and using Mediawiki syntax. But you're right...a simple <ol
start="3">
solves my problem... Thanks!
For source code listings, use the GeSHi extension
which is FANTASTIC.

Oh, cool! Thanks for that! I am so new, I actually don't know what an
extension is...but reading that page is simple enough; thank you!
