HTMLOListElement: start property
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The start
property of the HTMLOListElement
interface indicates starting value of the ordered list, with default value of 1.
It reflects the start
attribute of the <ol>
element.
Note:
The start
property value is independent of the HTMLOListElement.type
property; it is always numeric, even when type is letters or Roman numerals.
Value
A long
value.
