Mixing unordered lists and ordered lists gets you a list that follows the first list element to decide if it is an ordered or unordered list on the preview, but on the resulting post, you get a sublist of the second type inside a list of the first type.

1. First line
1. Second line
- Third line

...is shown in the Preview as:

1. First line
2. Second line
3. Third line

...but after posting is rendered as:

  1. First line
  2. Second line
    • Third line

    @Andy For your benefit, see S.Mark's script in a comment on this post, and my relevant comment (as a mediating step to reach the source) if you don't use Greasemonkey

    @Andy: in case the link doesn't work for you, I added a code block with the original contents.

  • @Andy, for any post, just using /posts/<id>/revisions will get you the revision "list" (including a link to "show source") even if there's only one revision and hence no clickable "edited xx ago" link is shown yet.

We've changed the behavior of WMD to match the serverside Markdown; this will be fixed in the next build.
