MODULE 3 - HTML TUTORIAL- Lists Lists and more Lists...

Review Topics

1. How are lists valuable in a web page?

Many web pages display lists of items -- these may be items preceded with a "bullet"(Unordered) or a sequentially numbered list (Ordered).

These lists are easy to format in HTML, and they may even be nested (lists of lists) to produce an outline format. Lists are also handy for creating an index or table of contents to a series of documents or chapters.

2. What is the HTML tag for a unordered list?
    ul

3. What is the tag for a ordered list?
    ol

4. How might you set up a nested list?

    • This is the first subitem of the second item

      • And this is a subitem of a subitem
      • Easy to get lost here!

    • This is the second subitem of the second item
    • This is the third subitem of the second item
