Two different ordered lists (the first list starts at 1, and the second starts at 50)
The <ol> tag defines an ordered list. An ordered list can be numerical or alphabetical.
The <li> tag is used to define each list item.
| Element | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| <ol> | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Attribute | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| reversed | reversed | Specifies that the list order should be reversed (9,8,7...) |
| start | number | Specifies the start value of an ordered list |
| type | 1 A a I i |
Specifies the kind of marker to use in the list |
The <ol> tag also supports the Global Attributes in HTML.
The <ol> tag also supports the Event Attributes in HTML.
Set different list types (with CSS):
<ol style="list-style-type:upper-roman">
<li>Coffee</li>
<li>Tea</li>
<li>Milk</li>
</ol>
<ol style="list-style-type:lower-alpha">
<li>Coffee</li>
<li>Tea</li>
<li>Milk</li>
</ol>
Display all the different list types available with CSS:
<style>
ol.a {list-style-type: armenian;}
ol.b {list-style-type: cjk-ideographic;}
ol.c {list-style-type: decimal;}
ol.d {list-style-type:
decimal-leading-zero;}
ol.e {list-style-type: georgian;}
ol.f
{list-style-type: hebrew;}
ol.g {list-style-type: hiragana;}
ol.h
{list-style-type: hiragana-iroha;}
ol.i {list-style-type: katakana;}
ol.j {list-style-type: katakana-iroha;}
ol.k {list-style-type:
lower-alpha;}
ol.l {list-style-type: lower-greek;}
ol.m
{list-style-type: lower-latin;}
ol.n {list-style-type: lower-roman;}
ol.o {list-style-type: upper-alpha;}
ol.p {list-style-type: upper-latin;}
ol.q {list-style-type: upper-roman;}
ol.r {list-style-type: none;}
ol.s {list-style-type: inherit;}
</style>
Reduce and expand line-height in lists (with CSS):
<ol style="line-height:80%">
<li>Coffee</li>
<li>Tea</li>
<li>Milk</li>
</ol>
<ol
style="line-height:180%">
<li>Coffee</li>
<li>Tea</li>
<li>Milk</li>
</ol>
Nest an unordered list inside an ordered list:
<ol>
<li>Coffee</li>
<li>Tea
<ul>
<li>Black tea</li>
<li>Green tea</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Milk</li>
</ol>
