In [[HTML]], lists are used to group related pieces of information together.

== Description ==

Lists are good from a structural point of view as they help create a well-structured, more accessible, easy-to-maintain document.

List are made up of a container element, and one or more [[Li (HTML element)|list item]] elements.

== Types of lists ==

There are three list container types in HTML:

* [[Ul (HTML element)|Unordered list]] — used to group a set of related items, in no particular order.
* [[Ol (HTML element)|Ordered list]] — used to group a set of related items, in a specific order.
* [[Dl (HTML element)|Description list]] — used to display name/value pairs such as terms and their definitions, or times and events.

== Examples ==

Here is an unordered list containing three list items:

<nowiki><ul>
<li>First item</li>
<li>Second item</li>
<li>Third item</li>
</ul></nowiki>
