HTML ul element

3 tags 1 category

The <ul> HTML element represents an unordered list of items, typically rendered as a bulleted list.

The <ul> element is for grouping a collection of items that do not have a numerical ordering, and their order in the list is meaningless. Typically, unordered-list items are displayed with a bullet, which can be of several forms, like a dot, a circle, or a square. The bullet style is not defined in the HTML description of the page, but in its associated CSS, using the list-style-type property. The <ul> and <ol> elements may be nested as deeply as desired. Moreover, the nested lists may alternate between <ol> and <ul> without restriction. To nest a list, place it inside an <li> element of the parent list; a <ul> or <ol> can’t be a direct child of another <ul> or <ol>. The <ol> and <ul> elements both represent a list of items. They differ in that, with the <ol> element, the order is meaningful.
