Subject: HTML Formatting Procedure Steps


  Formatting Procedure Steps differently.

	In looking in lists.xsl, I see that Procedures are just <OL></OL> and 
steps are <LI></LI>

I'd much rather format them as

<div class="step">
<h3>Step x</h3>

...

</div>

and make the procedure templates no-ops.  The problem comes in that 
Steps don't actually seem to keep track of their number on their own.

is it fairly simple to do this?  Anyone done it?

1.1 - I need to make the Procedure/Step numbering consistent across an 
entire "something" (lets say sect1 or article).

This is because my style of writing tends to put numbered steps, with 
the reasoning behind the action, or what is next to do outside of the 
step itself.  Ideally,

	<procedure>
		<step>Do the first thing</step>
		<para>What we'll do next in a conceptual overview, and why.</para>
		<step>The next thing</step>
	<procedure>

producing

Step 1
	Do the first thing

What we'll do next in a conceptual overview, and why.

Step 2
	The next thing

It seems the only way I can do this now is by using multiple 
procedures, and changing the numbering to be consistent across a 
section or the entire article.
