HTML Lists
HTML offers web authors three ways for specifying lists of information. Alllists must contain one or more list elements. Lists may contain:
<ul> - An unordered list. This will list items using plain bullets.
<ol> - An ordered list. This will use different schemes of numbers to
list your items.
<dl> - A definition list. This arranges your items in the same way as
they are arranged in a dictionary.
HTML Unordered Lists
An unordered list is a collection of related items that have no special order or
sequence. This list is created by using HTML <ul> tag. Each item in the list is
marked with a bullet.
Example
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Unordered List</title></head><body><ul><li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ul></body></html>
This will produce following result:
The type Attribute
You can use type attribute for <ul> tag to specify the type of bullet you like.By default it is a disc. Following are the possible options:
<ul type="square">
<ul type="disc">
<ul type="circle">
Example
Following is an example where we used <ul type="square">
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Unordered List</title></head><body><ul type="square"><li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ul></body></html>
This will produce following result:
Example
Following is an example where we used <ul type="disc">
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Unordered List</title></head><body><ul type="disc"><li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ul></body></html>
This will produce following result:
Example
Following is an example where we used <ul type="circle">:
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Unordered List</title></head><body><ul type="circle"><li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ul></body></html>
This will produce following result:
HTML Ordered Lists
If you are required to put your items in a numbered list instead of bulleted
list then HTML ordered list will be used. This list is created by using <ol> tag.
The numbering starts at one and is incremented by one for each successive
ordered list element tagged with <li>.
Example
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Ordered List</title></head><body><ol><li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ol></body></html>
This will produce following result:
The type Attribute
You can use type attribute for <ol> tag to specify the type of numbering youlike. By default it is a number. Following are the possible options:
<ol type="1"> - Default-Case Numerals.
<ol type="I"> - Upper-Case Roman Numerals.
<ol type="i"> - Lower-Case Roman Numerals.
<ol type="a"> - Lower-Case Letters.
<ol type="A"> - Upper-Case Letters.
Example
Following is an example where we used <ol type="1">
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Ordered List</title></head><body><ol type="1">
<li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ol></body></html>
This will produce following result:
Example
Following is an example where we used <ol type="I">
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Ordered List</title></head><body><ol type="I"><li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ol></body></html>
This will produce following result:
Example
Following is an example where we used <ol type="i">
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Ordered List</title></head><body><ol type="i"><li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ol></body></html>
This will produce following result:
Example
Following is an example where we used <ol type="A">
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Ordered List</title></head><body><ol type="A"><li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ol></body></html>
This will produce following result:
Example
Following is an example where we used <ol type="a">
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html><head><title>HTML Ordered List</title></head><body><ol type="a"><li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ol></body></html>
This will produce following result:
The start Attribute
You can use start attribute for <ol> tag to specify the starting point of
numbering you need. Following are the possible options:
<ol type="1" start="4"> - Numerals starts with 4.
<ol type="I" start="4"> - Numerals starts with IV.
<ol type="i" start="4"> - Numerals starts with iv.
<ol type="a" start="4"> - Letters starts with d.
<ol type="A" start="4"> - Letters starts with D.
Example
Following is an example where we used <ol type="i" start="4">
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Ordered List</title></head><body><ol type="i" start="4"><li>Beetroot</li><li>Ginger</li><li>Potato</li><li>Radish</li></ol></body></html>
This will produce following result
HTML Definition Lists
HTML and XHTML support a list style which is called definition lists whereentries are listed like in a dictionary or encyclopedia. The definition list is the
ideal way to present a glossary, list of terms, or other name/value list.
Definition List makes use of following three tags.
<dl> - Defines the start of the list
<dt> - A term
<dd> - Term definition
</dl> - Defines the end of the list
Example
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>HTML Definition List</title></head><body><dl><dt><b>HTML</b></dt><dd>This stands for Hyper Text Markup Language</dd><dt><b>HTTP</b></dt><dd>This stands for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol</dd></dl></body></html>
This will produce following result:
