HTML Lists

HTML provides web developers three ways for specifying lists of information. All lists must contain one or more list elements.

The three types in HTML lists are

  • <ul> - unordered list. Used to list items using plain bullets.
  • <ol> - ordered list. Used to list items using numbers (starting from 1).
  • <dl> - descriptions list. Displays list items in the same way as they are arranged in a dictionary.

HTML Ordered Lists

The <ol> tag defines an ordered list of items.

Note: The <li> tag defines a list item.

Example

HTML Online Editor
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <ol> <li>Apple</li> <li>Banana</li> </ol> </body> </html>
Run

HTML UnOrdered Lists

The <ul> tag defines an unordered list of items.

Note: The <li> tag defines a list item.

Example

HTML Online Editor
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <ul> <li>Apple</li> <li>Banana</li> </ul> </body> </html>
Run

HTML Description Lists

The Description Lists displays list items in the same way as they are arranged in a dictionary.

The 3 HTML description list tags are given below:

  1. <dl> - Specifies a description list.
  2. <dt> - Specifies a term in a description list.
  3. <dd> - Describes about the preceding term (<dt>) in the description list (<dl>).

Example

HTML Online Editor
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <dl> <dt>Apple</dt> <dd>Apple Prevents Cancer</dd> <dt>Banana</dt> <dd>Banana Cure Ulcers and Heart Burn</dd> </dl> </body> </html>
