changing format of --numbered-sections

changing format of --numbered-sections

[Tim]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 963 bytes --]

I am converting markdown to html using pandoc with an associated simple CSS.

Currently, the numbered headings appear as:

1 FirstHeading
1.1..

2 SecondHeading

My aim: I would like to modify the format of the headings very slightly so 
that there is a period after even the H1 headings:
1. FirstHeading.

I am *guessing* from looking at the html output that pandoc hardcodes the 
html output for the numbered sections.  Am I right therefore in thinking 
that I cannot modify my CSS to achieve my aim.

What then is the easiest way to achieve my aim?

If this is just for HTML, then you could use CSS to add the period.

Putting the following anywhere in your input Markdown should do the
trick:

```{=html}
<style>
h1::after, h2::after, h3::after, h4::after, h5::after, h6::after {
  content: '.';
}
</style>
```

If you also need to target different output, then I'd suggest using a
pandoc Lua filter. Put the following in a file `heading-periods.lua`
and run with `pandoc --lua-filter heading-periods.lua`

``` lua
function Header (h)
  h.content = h.content:insert(pandoc.Str '.')
  return h
end
```

HTH,
Albert

I think this almost does the trick, but the colon is appearing at the end 
of the heading:

1 FirstHeading.

whereas I wanted it just after the number 1.

Is there a way to change it ?

Whoops, I misread your question. This should do:

``` {=html}
<style>
.header-section-number::after {
  content: '.';
}
</style>
```
