There are several different types of lists that can be very useful.
These lists are not always read the same by all browsers.
You will see there are
some variations in both the line spacing and the type of bullet displayed.
To look at a particular type of list merely click on the one
you want to see.
Un Numbered Lists
Numbered Lists
Nested Lists
Definition Lists
|
<ul>
Begins an un-numbered, indented list.
Each item in that list is then prefaced with
the <li>tag. It is not necessary to insert a break
at the end of each line.
The <li> function will automatically create the new line.
You must end with the
</ul> tag.
<ul>
<li>apples
<li>pears
<li>oranges
</ul> appears as:
<ol>
Begins a numbered, indented list. Each item in that list is then prefaced with the <li> tag. It is not necessary to insert a break at the end of each line. The <li> function will automatically create the new line. You must always close with the </ol> tag.
A nested list begins in the same way as an un-numbered list. The nesting
(or indenting in of the list) is created by typing in the <ul>
tag several times.
You must close with the
</ul> tag, repeating one time for every time that the
<ul> tag is used.
In the following example, <ul> is used 3 times,
therefore </ul> MUST also be
used 3 times.
Definition lists are different to other lists in that they do not use the <li>
tag, and no
"bullet" appears at the beginning of each listed line.
There are 3 tags used within
a definition list:
