HTML List Item Tutorial

An ordered list is one where each item is preceded by an alphanumeric indicator. An unordered list is where each item is preceded by a bullet character.

Here's is a simple example of an ordered and an unordered list:

Ordered List

1. Item One
2. Item Two
3. Item Three

Unordered List

• Item One
• Item Two
• Item Three

Here is the code for those two lists:

Ordered List

<ol>
<li>Item One</li>
<li>Item Two</li>
<li>Item Three</li>
</ol>

Unordered List

<ul>
<li>Item One</li>
<li>Item Two</li>
<li>Item Three</li>
</ul>

Using CSS you can change the list markers for both ordered lists and unordered lists. I have a tutorial showing how linked up below.
