How to define a list item in HTML5?
To define a list in HTML5 we can use the HTML <li> tag. But there are two types of listing in HTML. One is an ordered list and another one is an unordered list. For ordered we can use HTML <ol> tag and for the unordered list, we will use the HTML <ul> tag.
Also, we can change the list type, for that, you can check the below articles.
Ordered list: It defines a list of items in which the order of item matters. An ordered list is also called a number list. The list items are enclosed within <ol> and </ol>tags. The ordering is given by numbering scheme, using Arabic numbers, letters or roman numerical.
Syntax:
<ol>
<li>List item 1</li>
<li>List item 2</li>
</ol>
Unordered list: It is used for items in which the ordering is not specific. An unordered list also called bulleted list. The list is defined using the <ul> and <ul/>tags. Each time in the list is defined using the <li> tag.
Syntax:
<ul>
<li>List item 1</li>
<li>List item 2</li>
</ul>
Example: The following code demonstrates both the ordered list and un-ordered list.
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <h1>GeeksforGeeks</h1> <ol> <li>Geeks</li> <li>Sudo</li> <li>Gfg</li> <li>Gate</li> <li>Placement</li> </ol> <ul> <li>Geeks</li> <li>Sudo</li> <li>Gfg</li> <li>Gate</li> <li>Placement</li> </ul> </body> </html> |
Output:
ordered list and un-ordered list
