If it can be done, the folks at the Yahoo group for WebWorks would have the expertise to tell you how. See http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/wwp-users/.

Ah, HTML! You can't align things with tabs in FM and have it translate
to HTML -- HTML doesn't respect white space (which includes tabs),
collapsing it all down to a single space. 

I'm no HTML guru, but I don't think there's any way to right-align the
numbers in an HTML ordered list (  
items in an   ). I think you'd
have to convert from an ordered list to a table, or maybe do the numbers
and following text as separate   tags with CSS positioning. 

Way too complex for such a trivial matter, if you ask me. We've all
lived with left-aligned numbered lists in Web pages for a long time now.
Your readers can live with it a bit longer. :-)

  Think of life like driving your car: the rear view mirror is very small compared to the side windows and to the front windshield where it's placed for convenience. If you spend your time watching the rear view mirror or looking over your shoulder, you'll surely wreck, because that's only helpful for going BACKWARDS, not moving forward! - Rene Stephenson
