HTML Tutorial: Lists
 

  Bulleted Lists are used to present information:
  • in a clear concise format
  • to improve readability
  • to have immediate visual impact

So how can I make a list?

This is the source code for the above list:

     <ul>
       <li>in a clear concise format
       <li>to improve readability
       <li>to have immediate visual impact
     </ul>

  • <UL> stands for unordered list - bullets are used instead of numbers.
  • <LI> stands for list item - you will need one of these for each item in the list. Unlike most HTML tags you don't have to end the list item i.e. </li>. Many HTML generators such as FrontPage will create end tags, but strictly speaking they are not necessary.
  • </UL>  ends the entire list (a must).

But I want square bullets !!

Not a problem ..........

    <ul Type="square">
       <li>in a clear concise format
       <li>to improve readability
       <li>to have immediate visual impact
     </ul>

Gives you ........

  • in a clear concise format
  • to improve readability
  • to have immediate visual impact
