Making Lists
Lists are very simple, although a person could make one very complex, depending on how far
in it took the list.
This first type of list I am going to show you is called a MENU list.
The three components of a menu list are:
<MENU>(beginning of the menu)
<LI> (item in the menu, as many as you want)
</MENU> (ending of the menu)
That is all there is too it! If you want more items in the menu, just add more <LI>
lines with one item per <LI> line.
Next I will show you an Ordered List.
This will be an order list with numbers.(Code this line <OL> )
1.This would be item one.(Code this line <LI> )
2.This would be item two.(Code this line <LI> )
3.This would be item three.(Code this line <LI> )
(Code this line </OL> )
You could keep adding <LI> lines for as many items as you wanted.
But what if you wanted Roman Numerals?
Code this line <OL TYPE="I">
I.Line one...Code this line <LI>
II.Line two...Code this line <LI>
III.Line three..Code this line <LI>
Code this line </OL>
Works pretty good, but what if you want to go deeper into the list?
Code this line <OL Type="I">
I.First level <LI>
A.Second level <OL TYPE="A"><LI>
a.Third level <OL TYPE="a"><LI>
End last two levels </OL> </OL>
B.Start a new item. <LI> End the list. </OL>
II.Go back to first level, etc.... </OL><LI>
The last type of list is the Unordered List.
Code this line <UL>
First line of unordered list. <LI>
Second level <UL><LI>
Third level <UL><LI>
Go back to second level </UL><LI>
Go back to first level </UL><LI>
End the list </UL>
After you do that a time or two, it does not seem so confusing. Just remember
to have the same amount of beginning tags as ending tags. You probably
noticed the <LI> tag does not have an end tag.
