Write the HTML code (start from <BODY> tag) to display the following output on a web page:
Similar to MS Word, you can also create different types of lists and tables on the web pages in HTML5.
In the previous class, you have learned the basic tags of HTML and their attributes. In this chapter, you
will learn how to create lists and tables in HTML5.
CREATING LISTS
A list is a collection of related items that can be used to represent information in pointed form. In
our daily routine, we have to write many things such as list of items required for a festival and list of
steps to make a dish. List feature of HTML5 allows us to display this type of information on the web
page in an organised manner. There are three types of lists named ordered list, unordered list and
definition list that can be created in HTML5 to display the items in the form of list. Let us learn about
these in detail.
Ordered List
An ordered list is also called the numbered list. This type of list is used to display the items in a sequential
manner. For example, steps in an algorithm, etc. In HTML, the <OL> tag is used to create an ordered list.
The <LI> tag is used to define an item in the list. It can be used as an empty tag as well as a container
tag. The <OL> tag have two attributes named TYPE and START which you can use in the following way:
<OL TYPE ="A"> - will start the list from A.
<OL TYPE ="a" START=”4”> - will start the list from d.
<OL TYPE ="1" START=”25”> - will start the list from 25.
<OL TYPE ="I" START="2"> - will start the list from II.
<OL TYPE ="i" START="4"> - will start the list from iv.
The START attribute accepts only integer values.
