Lists

Lists provide ways to format collections of content. You can use an ordered list (numbered) or an unordered list (bulleted).

Ordered List- a numeric list; requires using nested tags <ol> and <li>

An ordered list will appear like this in browser:

1. Coffee

2. Reading

3. Archery

Unordered List- a bulleted list

Use <ul> instead of <ol>

An unordered list will appear like this in browser:

• Coffee

• Reading

• Archery

List Attributes:

• start - insert the start value; 1 is default.

• reversed - This Boolean attribute specifies that the list’s items are in reverse order. Items will be numbered from high to low.

• start - An integer to start counting from for the list items. Always an Arabic numeral (1, 2, 3, etc.), even when the numbering type is letters or Roman numerals. For example, to start numbering elements from the letter "d" or the Roman numeral "iv," use start="4".

• type - Sets the numbering type:

• a for lowercase letters

• A for uppercase letters

• i for lowercase Roman numerals

• I for uppercase Roman numerals

• 1 for numbers (default)

The specified type is used for the entire list unless a different type attribute is used on an enclosed <li> element.
