Does the ordered list work or is it just me?

Is it me or the ordered list from the Full Editor doesn't work?
  • This is the first item.
  • This is the second item.
  • This is the third item.
First of all the List item button shows: [*]text[/*] but when you highlight a line and click it, it only adds the opening tag [*], and not the closing one, like shown above. But adding the closing tag doesn't seem to make any difference:
  • This is the first item.
  • This is the second item.
  • This is the third item.
The standard list works though:
  • This is the first item.
  • This is the second item.
  • This is the third item.
Even without the closing tags [/*] for the items in the list:
  • This is the first item.
  • This is the second item.
  • This is the third item.
It's trivial and maybe it's just me who can't do an ordered list but if there's something I'm not doing right, I'd like to know... since it can be useful and looks better than doing it manually as it's indented.

This is how it works... I have disabled the BBCode in my post so you can see that it should be list=1 instead of just list=
Also, you can use 1 for multiple lists in the same post.

[list=1][*]This is the first item.
[*]This is the second item.
[*]This is the third item.[/list]

Thanks! I read in from the mouseover info that the = sign meant ordered list. I'm not very familiar with BBCode forums. At least now I know!
