Lists
These are used to create orderly lists of anything you want on your page. Only a few tags are needed, and they are easy to learn.

Some of these tags have attributes, all of which can be seen in the Quick Reference Guide.

TagExplanation
<OL>This command is used to create an ordered (numbered) list. Use the tag </OL> to end the ordered list.
<UL>This tag is used to create an unordered (bulleted) list. Use the tag </UL> to end the list.
<LH>The LH tag is used to make list headers. Use the tag </LH> to end the header.
<LI>This tag is used to put items into your list. No closing tag is needed.
Examples
With ordered lists you can choose to have standard numbers (1,2,3), letters (A,B,C), or roman numerals (i,ii,iii), with unordered lists disc, circle, and square can all be used. You can add as many items as you want by simply adding more <LI> tags.
