<p>The <strong><code>HTMLOListElement</code></strong> interface provides special properties (beyond those defined on the regular {{domxref("HTMLElement")}} interface it also has available to it by inheritance) for manipulating ordered list elements.</p>

  <dt>
    <code>reversed</code></dt>
  <dd>
    Is a {{domxref("Boolean")}} value indicating if the ordering is descending, that is its value is <code>true</code>, or ascending (<code>false</code>).</dd>

  <dt>
    <code>compact</code> {{obsolete_inline}}</dt>
  <dd>
    Is a {{domxref("Boolean")}} indicating that spacing between list items should be reduced. This property reflects the {{htmlattrxref("compact", "ol")}} attribute only, it doesn't consider the {{cssxref("line-height")}} CSS property used for that behavior in modern pages.</dd>
