UListElement Interface
The HTML unordered list element (<ul>
) represents an unordered list of items, namely a collection of items that do not have a numerical ordering, and their order in the list is meaningless. Typically, unordered-list items are displayed with a bullet, which can be of several forms, like a dot, a circle or a squared. The bullet style is not defined in the HTML description of the page, but in its associated CSS, using the list-style-type
property.
There is no limitation to the depth and imbrication of lists defined with the <ol>
and <ul>
elements.
<ol>
and <ul>
both represent a list of items. They differ in the way that, with the <ol>
element, the order is meaningful. As a rule of thumb to determine which one to use, try changing the order of the list items; if the meaning is changed, the <ol>
element should be used, else the <ul>
is adequate.Extends

A fourth bullet type has been defined in the WebTV interface, but not all browsers support it: triangle.
If not present and if no CSS list-style-type
property does apply to the element, the user agent decide to use a kind of bullets depending on the nesting level of the list.
