Content presenter dsiplay tempates

Hi There,
I can access JSF EL using the following format ${var}, assuming 'var' is a variable. E.g.
<h2>${var}</h2>

But when it come to ADF EL such as var="nodes" in the below sample code
    <dt:contentListTemplateDef var="nodes">
                <ol>
                   <af:iterator var="node" value="#{nodes}"  varStatus="vs" rendered="#{not empty nodes}">
                            <li data-target="#carousel" class="#{vs.index}">
                                <a href="" title="">
                                    <af:outputText value="#{node.propertyMap['TEST_RD:Title'].asTextHtml}" id="otdt0" escape="false"/>
                                </a>
                            </li>
                          </af:iterator>
                      </ol>
    </dt:contentListTemplateDef>

I want to access #{vs.index} in my HTML code in terms of ADF EL, please find the below code snippet
