The counter-reset property in CSS is used to reset or initialize the value of a CSS counter. Counters are used with the counter-increment property and the counter() function to create automatic numbering for elements.
Syntax:
/* Resetting the value of the 'chapter' counter to 1 */ body { counter-reset: chapter 1; }
Features:
- Counter Initialization:
counter-reset initializes the value of a counter to a specified number.
- Usage with Counters: Typically used in conjunction with the
counter-increment property and the counter() function to automatically number elements.
- Multiple Counters: You can reset multiple counters in a single rule.
The counter-reset property is useful in scenarios where you want to restart the counting of elements, like chapters or sections, in a document.
