No closing tag for list items

[jrfinkel]

The List macro is very convenient. However, it fails to close each list item tag.

For example, this:

Code: Select all

<ol>
<li>item one
<li>item two
</ol>

should be this:

Code: Select all

<ol>
<li>item one</li>
<li>item two</li>
</ol>

Whereas some macros in the Library can be edited, I find no way to edit this one in order to have it inject correct XHTML.

Thanks.

By the way, this is in WeBuilder 2010 Version 10.2 (10.2.0.121)

There is an option in the settings, but why you'd not want to close the tags I don't know!

Goto Otions -> Preferences -> Language Options -> HTML and you'll see an option for Add list item end-tags

Sure enough. Thanks! I agree that this should default to On.

I had they same problem a while ago, it kept leaving the closing </li> tags out everytime, but it has been working fine since. I have that option disabled and it's working adding the closing </li>, I'm not sure but there might be something dodgy going on with it.

Hi,

The behaviour depends not only on this option, but also on the document type you are using. Some specifications require the closing tag for <li> item, some don't.
Having that option enabled, means the closing tag will be added no matter what.
