  I have a numbered list. I can control the type of number with the list-style-type attribute (such as decimal, upper-alpha, lower-alpha, etc.). I want to use numbers, but I want the character after the number to be a closing parenthesis rather than a period. So instead of
  1. xxxxx
  2. xxxxx
  3. xxxxx

  I want:
  1) xxxxx
  2) xxxxx
  3) xxxxx

  Can I do it using CSS?

  Thanks!

  I don’t think you can do this yet.

  I see there’s a :marker pseudo element in CSS3, but browsers don’t seem to have support for it yet. I tried it in Chrome and Firefox and it didn’t work in my tests.
