In paged media, the CSS property target-counters
can be used to include multiple counters. The spec gives the following example (simplified):
a::after {
content: "see section " target-counters(attr(href, url), section, ".")
}
that should output something like (see section 1.3.5)
.
How would I set up the section
counter?
From the Generated Content Module (for non-paged content, too):
Counters are "self-nesting", in the sense that re-using a counter in a child element automatically creates a new instance of the counter.
Therefore, you can just write
<style type="text/css">
section {counter-increment: section;}
</style>
<section id="foo">
<h1>Root level</h1>
<section id="bar">
<h2>Sub Level</h2>
</section>
</section>
There is no way to use nested counters if your element tree is flat (as in <h1>Root</h1><h2>Sub</h2>
).
