There's a malformed closing </li> tag at the end, but otherwise I get the result you're looking for with the exception of the bullets, but that can be changed with CSS. See the screen shot attached.

the results im getting are

 

1.title for bullets

bullet 1

bullet 2

 

second title for bullets

bullet 1

bullet 2

 

third title for bullets

bullet 1

bullet 2

 

only the first title is numbered. oops didn't see malformed closing </li>. its only an example code but its layed out the same way that im trying to use.

now i feel stupid, bar the malformed closing </li>, my example was written correctly, compared to my actual script!

 

i didnt check it properly, i was using the <em> tag as well for the titles so i forgot to put the <li></li> on the outside of the <em>'s

 

my code was reading

 

<em>blah blah title</em>

 

instead of

 

<li><em>blah blah title</em></li>

 

thats why it wasn't numbered in the <ol> sorry for wasting your time
