HTML to PDF conversion with API drops the "start" attribute from <ol> tags #42

Closed jakemwp closed 8 years ago

jakemwp commented 8 years ago

Ran into a problem where the above happens. Here is what I expect it to look like (ignore the extra nonsense- going to this page also echos out the response from running the docverter CURL request)

http://67.227.192.13/~hosttestmyphpski/html_to_pdf/html_templates/capital-dental-purchase-agreement.php

And here is a PDF generated by that HTML:http://67.227.192.13/~hosttestmyphpski/html_to_pdf/html_templates/TestContact12342014.pdf

Notice that the ordered lists start 1 and end at 9 for the HTML but in the PDF they reset every everytime there is new list instead counting up for each option.

Any idea on what could be causing this?

Any response on why my start attribute is dropped from the PDF and each list starts from 1?

I've tried adding the "value" tag to the list elements themselves, but even those get dropped.

What it ends up looking like: https://jsfiddle.net/a21oppv0/

Expected result: https://jsfiddle.net/cfrqjv0o/2/

Same thing happens either way the list always starts at the beginning. Going to try making new classes in CSS and setting it that way next.

No idea, sorry. It could be a flyingsaucer bug (that's the thing that does HTML -> PDF) but the version of flyingsaucer we use is very old, and there's no upgrade path.

Figured it out- just had to use CSS instead. This works like a charm: https://jsfiddle.net/a21oppv0/1/
