CSS leading zeros for decimals not working with large numbers

Question

I recently encountered a problem where I created an ordered list containing over a hundred list items. I set list-style:decimal-leading-zero;

ol{
  list-style: decimal-leading-zero;
}

<ol>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
</ol>
<p>...</p>
<ol start="96">
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
<li>Some item</li>
</ol>

Problem: Only the first nine list items have leading zeros.

Expected: Two leading zeros in the first nine list items, and one leading zero in the 10th to 99th list items.

Answer 1

There is no list-style for three decimal places.

However, you can use pseudo-selectors and counters a> to achieve what you want here.

Reference Code:

ol {
  counter-reset: items;
}

li {
  display: block;
  counter-increment: items;
}

li:before {
  content: "00" counter(items)". ";
}

li:nth-child(n+10):before {
  content: "0" counter(items)". ";
}

li:nth-child(n+100):before {
  content: counter(items)". ";
}

<ol>
  <li>Item 1</li>
  <li>Item 2</li>
  <li>Item 3</li>
  <li>Item 4</li>
  <li>Item 5</li>
  <li>Item 6</li>
  <li>Item 7</li>
  <li>Item 8</li>
  <li>Item 9</li>
  <li>Item 10</li>
