Creating ordered and unordered lists in html
In this lesson we used more <h> tags plus a unordered list and a ordered list. To show the difference in the two, I have used a ordered and a unordered list. You decide which one you want to use.
The unordered list
The <ul> tag: This tag is used to form a unordered list. The <ul> is the container tags of a list. Everything in your list goes between the container tags.
<ul>
<li> list item </li>
<li> list item </li>
</ul>
The ordered list
The <ol> tag: This is the container tags of an ordered list. A ordered list is numbered or alphabetically arranged, each item is preceded by a number, a letter, an image and so on.
<ol>
<li> list item </li>
<li> list item </li>
</ol>
List items
The <li> is a list item. Each item in the list is contained in the <li> tags.
Practice makes perfect. You can change your web page as often as you like. Just remember to save your changes before you close notepad.
