This is a bit of an odd one. The button was adding the appropriate <ol><li></li></ol> to the html source, but it wasn't showing up right on the screen.

Anyway, I've made a change to our stylesheets and it seems to fix the problem. The fix will be in LAMS 2.1.

If you can't wait till then, then have a look in lams_central/css/ and find defaultHTML_learner.css and defaultHTML.css. Change this bit




ul {
    margin-left: 25px;
    margin-right: 30px;
}

li {
    list-style-type: circle;
    padding-bottom: 5px;
}




to





ul {
    margin-right: 25px;
    margin-left: 30px;
}

ul li { list-style-type:circle;}

ol {
    margin-right: 25px;
    margin-left: 30px;
}




Then it should work. You should make a backup copy of those two files before you edit them (just in case something goes wrong).

Thanks Fiona.

Another question is about the space in text editor.
It is too limited!.

Is it possible the user to be able to resize it?

Do you mean the overall size of the box in which you get to type? Yes, it is small - it was a compromise between getting lots of fields on the screen and giving users enough space to type.

If you click on the icon that looks like a little screen, next to the Source button on the top line of the toolbar, then the text editing box should take over the entire screen.

To get back to the normal size, click on the screen button again.

I have not seen this button.
This is exactly what I wanted.
