In HTML, lists are used to group related items together. There are three main types of lists:
1. Ordered List (<ol>
) : Ordered lists can be customized with type
attribute (1
, A
, a
, I
, i
).
2. Unordered List (<ul>
) : Unordered lists can change bullet style using CSS (list-style-type: circle; square; none;
).
3. Description List (<dl>
) : <dt>
= definition term, <dd>
= definition description
