styling ordered lists

Sent by Shelly on 3 April 2007 01:01


I saw the neatest list the other day on a site I can't remember, and I'd 
like to try to do the same thing on a site I'm working on.

Basically they had - somehow - taken the list numbers and set them as 
sort of a large background.  It wasn't an image - it was the actual 
number from the ordered list, just made HUGE and set in a light color, 
and as a faux-background, with the line item content sort of overlaying it.

I also noticed that the number itself had no period - i.e. "1" instead 
of "1."

I thought it was cool and I *thought* it'd be easy to do, so I didn't 
bookmark the site (duh, me!) and now I can't seem to figure out how they 
did it.  I'm *positive* it was done, somehow, using CSS.

Would anyone have any ideas on how to accomplish this?
