2 years ago Thank you for the fix. I also had some issues in the next paragraph of the "Counters" section about the alphabetical numbering, for example how is "कट" 44? Should I open another issue for that?

2 years ago @ss141309 "कट" is 44 when using the alphabetic counter style. See the paragraph between the two figures. Does that answer your question?

Ah yes! I should have gotten that sooner. 🤦 I also have another question, should the Katapayadi System (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katapayadi_system) and the Aryabhata numeration (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%80ryabha%E1%B9%ADa_numeration) also be included in the counters section? Though including them in it seems a bit iffy, they are still systems used to represent numbers in the form of letters. Please clarify.

2 years ago The question is whether you have found users trying to use these systems for web content and being unable to. If not, we're not so interested in documenting them here.
Note that users can also define their own counter styles using the Counter Styles CSS rules on Chrome and Firefox (and hopefully soon Safari).

2 years ago No I have not seen them being used for web content. Thank you for clarifying.
The "Counters" section of the Devanagari page (https://www.w3.org/International/ilreq/devanagari/#h_counters) is using the Bangla numerals instead of the Devanagari ones. Please correct that.
