Setting Up Lists

HTML offers several different list styles, but I discuss only two of them in this section: numbered lists and bulleted lists.

If you want to include a numbered list of items—a Top Ten list, bowling league standings, or any kind of ranking—you don't need to add the numbers yourself. Instead, you can use HTML ordered lists to make the Web browser generate the numbers for you.

Ordered lists use two types of tags:

  • The entire list is surrounded by the <OL> and </OL> tags.

  • Each item in the list is preceded by the <LI> (list item) tag.

The general setup looks like this:

<OL>
<LI>First item.
<LI>Second item.
<LI>Third item.
