Here's a tutorial on HTML lists:
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) provides several types of lists for organizing and presenting information on a web page. Lists are useful for presenting information in a structured and easy-to-read format, and can be used for a wide range of purposes, such as navigation menus, product features, or FAQs.
There are three types of lists in HTML: ordered lists, unordered lists, and definition lists.
<ol>
element, and each item in the list is represented by the <li>
element.Here's an example of how to create an ordered list in HTML:
<ol> <li>First item</li> <li>Second item</li> <li>Third item</li> </ol>
In this example, the <ol>
element is used to create an ordered list, and each item in the list is represented by the <li>
element.
<ul>
element, and each item in the list is represented by the <li>
element.Here's an example of how to create an unordered list in HTML:
<ul> <li>First item</li> <li>Second item</li> <li>Third item</li> </ul>
In this example, the <ul>
element is used to create an unordered list, and each item in the list is represented by the <li>
element.
<dl>
element, and each term is represented by the <dt>
element, and each definition is represented by the <dd>
element.Here's an example of how to create a definition list in HTML:
<dl> <dt>Term 1</dt> <dd>Definition 1</dd> <dt>Term 2</dt> <dd>Definition 2</dd> <dt>Term 3</dt> <dd>Definition 3</dd> </dl>
In this example, the <dl>
element is used to create a definition list, and each term is represented by the <dt>
element, and each definition is represented by the <dd>
element.
By using HTML lists, you can present information in a structured and easy-to-read format, making it easier for your website visitors to understand and engage with your content.

HTML definition lists:
<dl>
) consist of terms (<dt>
) and their corresponding definitions (<dd>
).<dl> <dt>Term 1</dt> <dd>Definition 1</dd> <dt>Term 2</dt> <dd>Definition 2</dd> </dl>
HTML list attributes:
