20.11.2.5 Customizing list attributes

When you use the HTML list styles, the browser itself supplies the bullet or autonumber; the one provided by FrameMaker is automatically dropped. To keep a FrameMaker bullet or autonumber, perhaps because you have chosen an unbulleted style (such as List11 in some browsers):

[HtmlStyles]

; Anum includes Frame autonumber in list, default omits it

MyBulletStyle = Anum

To omit the CSS class attribute from the list entries:

[CSS]

; NoClassLists = Yes (default, no class in <LI> tags), or No

; Default is reversed to No if UseCSS=Yes.

NoClassLists = Yes

; NoAttribLists = No (default, use type and value in list tags),

; or Yes

NoAttribLists = No

; AlwaysNestLists = No (default, no nesting when CSS used) or Yes

AlwaysNestLists = No

If you use CSS, the default value of NoClassLists is reversed to No; see §21.5 Understanding how CSS affects other options.

If you are not using CSS, and your document has nested lists, you might need this setting:

[CSS]

AlwaysNestLists = Yes

However, if you use CSS at all for list items, you will get a mess if the lists really do nest. Mif2Go prevents that by default (with AlwaysNestLists=No), when you use class attributes. Setting AlwaysNestLists=Yes turns off this safety net, so you will have to adjust the CSS for the nested items to prevent overindenting. And also wave goodbye to cross-browser consistency.
