Types of Lists


One way to organize the text in your Web pages is with lists. In addition to the obvious benefit of being able to list items on a page, they also provide a design benefit by enabling you to break up long pages of ordinary paragraphs. HTML recognizes the following list types and has tags that correspond to each:

  • Bulleted (unordered) lists

  • Numbered/lettered (ordered) lists

  • Definition lists

Tip

You should use ordered lists when the items in the list must be followed in a specific order, and use unordered lists when they do not. You generally use definition lists for terms and their definitions, but they can have other uses as well.
