can i adjust the spacing between number and item in numbered list?

Good afternoon all,

I have a basic ordered list:

<ol>
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
</ol>

The resultant list:
1. Item 1
2. Item 2

has too much space between the number and the item, between '1.' and
'Item 1'. Is there a property that controls this?

Thanks,
Kathryn

Different UA's 'create' the space differently: some with padding, others
with margin. Using CSS to set one of the two to 0 (I usually use margin
for the 'space', and set padding to 0), with a
list-style-positionutside; just to be sure does wonders.
