List Item
Category:HTML Tags
List Item
This tag is used to create a list. The list tag <li> must be contained in an ordered list (<ol>) with bullets) or an unordered list (<ul>) with numbers).
Examples
Ordered List
Using <li> within an ordered list
<ol>
<li>Tea</li>
<li>Milk</li>
<li>Water</li>
</ol>
Unordered List
Using <li> within an unordered list
<ul>
<li>Tea</li>
<li>Milk</li>
<li>Water</li>
</ul>
Syntax
<li></li>
Tips
- Try to indent your
</li>tags so it's clear they are contained in the<ul>or<ol>tags. - Make sure to start your list with either a
<ul>or a<ol>. If you just use<li></li>without<ul>or<ol>the rendered result will be a unordered list with bullet icons preceding each list item. - The list items can contain content other than text such as lists of videos, images, songs, or hyperlinks.
