<h2>Description</h2>
<p>The objective of this technique is to create lists of related items using list elements appropriate for their purposes. The <code class="el">ol</code> element is used when the list is ordered and the <code class="el">ul</code> element
is used when the list is unordered. Definition lists (<code class="el">dl</code>) are used to group terms with their definitions. Although the use of this markup can make lists more readable, not all lists need markup. For instance,
sentences that contain comma-separated lists may not need list markup.
</p>
<p>When markup is used that visually formats items as a list but does not indicate the list relationship, users may have difficulty in navigating the information. An example of such visual formatting is including asterisks in the content
at the beginning of each list item and using <<code class="el">br</code>> elements to separate the list items.
</p>
<p>Some assistive technologies allow users to navigate from list to list or item to item. Style sheets can be used to change the presentation of the lists while preserving their integrity.
</p>
<p>The list structure (<code class="el">ul</code>/<code class="el">ol</code>) is also useful to group hyperlinks. When this is done, it helps screen reader users to navigate from the first item in a list to the end of the list or jump
to the next list. This helps them to bypass groups of links if they choose to.
</p>

<h2>Examples</h2>
<section class="example" id="example-1-a-list-showing-steps-in-a-sequence-">
<h3>Example 1: A list showing steps in a sequence </h3>
<p>This example uses an ordered list to show the sequence of steps in a process.</p><pre xml:space="preserve"><code class="language-markup"> <ol>
<li>Mix eggs and milk in a bowl.</li>
<li>Add salt and pepper.</li>
</ol></code></pre></section>
<section class="example" id="example-2-a-grocery-list-">
<h3>Example 2: A grocery list </h3>
<p>This example shows an unordered list of items to buy at the store.</p><pre xml:space="preserve"><code class="language-markup"><ul>
<li>Milk</li>
<li>Eggs</li>
<li>Butter</li>
</ul></code></pre></section>
<section class="example" id="example-3-a-word-and-its-definition-">
<h3>Example 3: A word and its definition </h3>
<p>This example uses a definition list to group a definition with the term that is being defined.
</p><pre xml:space="preserve"><code class="language-markup"><dl>
<dt>blink</dt>
<dd>turn on and off between .5 and 3 times per second
</dd>
</dl> </code></pre></section>
<section class="example" id="example-4-contact-information-using-a-definition-list">
<h3>Example 4: Contact information using a definition list</h3>
<p>This example uses a defintion list to mark up pairs of related items. The pairs themselves are a logically related list. Since browsers lack wide support for CSS styling on definition list elements, span elements have been included
in the markup for styling purposes only, and are not required:
</p><pre xml:space="preserve"><code class="language-markup"><dl>
<dt><span>name:</span></dt><dd><span>John Doe</span></dd>
<dt><span>tel:</span></dt><dd><span>01-2345678</span></dd>
<dt><span>fax:</span></dt><dd><span>02-3456789</span></dd>
<dt><span>email:</span></dt><dd><span>[email protected]</span></dd>
</dl></code>
</pre>
<p>The following CSS styling can be used to format each paired item in the list on its own line, as well as giving a table-like layout:
</p><pre xml:space="preserve"><code class="language-css">dt, dd{float: left;margin: 0;padding: 0;}
dt{clear:both;font-weight: bold}
dt span{display: inline-block; width: 70px;}
dd span{display: inline-block; margin-right: 5px;}</code>
</pre>
<p class="working-example">This is shown in the <a href="../../working-examples/definition-list-contact-info/">working example of Contact information using a definition list</a>
</p>
</section>
<section class="example" id="example-5-using-lists-to-group-links">
<h3>Example 5: Using lists to group links</h3>
<p>In this example the links are grouped using the <code class="el">ul</code> and <code class="el">li</code> elements.
</p><pre xml:space="preserve"><code class="language-markup"><a name="categories" id="categories"></a><h2>Product Categories</h2>
<ul class="navigation">
<li><a href="kitchen.html">Kitchen</a></li>
<li><a href="bedbath.html">Bed &amp; Bath</a></li>
<li><a href="dining.html">Fine Dining</a></li>
<li><a href="lighting.html">Lighting</a></li>
<li><a href="storage.html">Storage</a><li>
</ul> </code></pre>
<p>CSS can be used to style the list elements, so this technique can be used with a variety of visual appearances.
</p>
<p>Here is a style that removes the list bullets and the left padding that creates the indent and flows the individual list elements horizontally.
</p><pre xml:space="preserve"><code class="language-css">ul.navigation {
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
}
ul.navigation li {
display: inline;
}</code></pre>
<p>This style removes the list bullets and the left padding and displays the items in a floating block.
</p><pre xml:space="preserve"><code class="language-css">ul.navigation {
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
}
ul.navigation li {
display: block;
float: left;
}</code></pre></section>
