List Tags

Ordered List Tag

The Ordered List Tag is used when making a list that you want in numerical order. An example is below.

<OL>
  • First item in the list
  • Second item in the list
  • Third item in the list
    </OL>

    Note:The <LI> tags don't have end tags. You can remember these by List Item. These will be used in all lists.

    Unordered List

    The Unordered List Tag will put items in a list but they will not be in numerical order like the ordered list. Instead there will be bullets beside then. An example is below.

    <UL>
  • First item in list
  • Second item in list
  • Third item in list
    </UL>

    Definition List

    The Definition List(<DL>) has some other attributes that go with it. It doesn't have the list item tag. Instead it has the definition term(<DT>)tag and the definition definition (<DD>)tag.

    <DL>
    Dog
    A four legged animal, that can be a number of different breeds.
    Glossary
    : A place in the back of some books, that gives the definition of words mentioned in the book.
    </DL>

    Note:You might have noticed already but the <DT> and <DD> don't have end tags. They don't have them because they aren't required.
