*Unordered Lists*
An unordered list is a list of items. The list items are marked with bullets (typically small black circles).
An unordered list starts with the <ul> tag. Each list item starts with the <li> tag.
<ul>
<li>Coffee</li>
<li>Milk</li>
</ul> Here is how it looks in a browser:
* Coffee
* Milk
Inside a list item you can put paragraphs, line breaks, images, links, other lists, etc.
*Ordered Lists*
An ordered list is also a list of items. The list items are marked with numbers.
An ordered list starts with the <ol> tag. Each list item starts with the <li> tag.
<ol>
<li>Coffee</li>
<li>Milk</li>
</ol> Here is how it looks in a browser:
1. Coffee
2. Milk
Inside a list item you can put paragraphs, line breaks, images, links, other lists, etc.
*Definition Lists*
A definition list is not a list of single items. It is a list of items (terms), with a description of each item (term).
A definition list starts with a <dl> tag (*d*efinition *l*ist).
Each term starts with a <dt> tag (*d*efinition *t*erm).
Each description starts with a <dd> tag (*d*efinition *d*escription).
<dl>
<dt>Coffee</dt>
<dd>Black hot drink</dd>

<dd>White cold drink</dd>
