Ok you are dead bored with printing stuff in the conventional way . Well lets move onto something more exciting then. Printing text in L I S T form - well nearly more exciting.

It is some times useful to produce ordered numbered lists. An ordered numbered list always begins with the <ol> tag element, and is then followed by list element <li>. For example if I wanted to list the first five levels of quake II then the following code would be sufficient

This will list the above five quake II levels as below.

1. Entry
   
2. Warehouse
   
3. Jail
   
4. Mines
   
5. Factory
   

Ok you do not like ordered numbers, and you want roman numerals or letters instead. Easy you just add the type attribute to the <ol> tag. You can also include the start attribute which will start the list at some preferred value of your choice.

The above will give you list starting with the letter d.

4. Entry
   
5. Warehouse
   
6. Jail
   
7. Mines
   
8. Factory
   

You can use the following parameters for the type attribute. If no type attribute is used, then the default will be numbers.

(TYPE=A) will give capital letters. e.g. A, B, C ............
(TYPE=a) will give small letters. e.g. a, b, c .................
(TYPE=I) will give large roman numerals. e.g. I, II, III .
(TYPE=i) will small roman numerals. e.g. i, ii, iii ........

An alternative way to list text, is to use the unordered <ul> tag element followed by the <li> element which will give you a bullet list.

ie.

• Gunner
  
• Enforcer
  
• Berserker
  
• Gladiator
  

It is also possible to produce definition lists, using <DL> element. The <dt> element is used to indicate the term, while <dd> element defines the term.

You will notice that in the above code that I have also made the terms appear in a blue font.

Gunner

These guys are extremely thick. Easy to kill and not well armed.

Berserker

Get your big guns out for these guys. They take some serious pounding.
