For example, the following code:
<ul type="bullet">
    <li>Red</li>
    <li>Green</li>
    <li>Blue</li>
</ul>

produces:

1. Red
2. Green
3. Blue

Reproducible: Always
"bullet" and "disk" don't exist. The valid types for lists are: "disc", "circle" and "square".

My error, having been mislead by an error in HTML Builder XP Version 6.0.

However, a bug does exist because an invalid value for an unordered-list attribute (i.e. type="bullet" and type="disk") should be ignored and therefore the default "disc" type should be automatically selected - not the default for ordered lists.

I assess the severity as trivial because there is no practical need to enter a default value.
