LISTS
There are several different types of lists that can be displayed. The
ones that we will look at are:
- UL (the unordered list).
- OL (the ordered list).
- DIR (the directory list).
- MENU (the menu list).
On some browsers most of these lists may look the
same, and on some browsers, they may all look different. These tag names
for list types just specify the appearance of the list, not the content.
(i.e., a DIR list may not be a directory, and a MENU list may not
be a menu. They are presented in a way similar to a directory or a menu.)
The form of one of these lists is:
-- <list type> --|-- <LI> -- list item --|-- </list type> --|
^ |

where "list type" is: OL, UL, DIR, MENU
(View Alt. Syntax Definition.)
