HTML list tags are important element for who is learning HTML language. Someone doesn’t understand some tags, attributes, etc. If you are a new learner in HTML language and if you don’t know what is HTML list tags, I will tell you what is HTML list tag. I will also show how to use HTML list tags.

Normally, we can create various types of a list like ordered & unordered. HTML provides both type of list in the document. It’s the best way to create a list in your HTML template.

If you want to create an ordered list, you have to use the following tags:

  <li>Order Item One</li>
  <li>Order Item Two</li>
  <li>Order Item Three</li>
  <li>Order Item Four</li>
  <li>Order Item Five</li>
</ol>

On the other hand, If you want to create an unordered list, you have to use the following tags:

<ul>
  <li>Order Item One</li>
  <li>Order Item Two</li>
  <li>Order Item Three</li>

  <li>Order Item Five</li>
</ul>

ul {list-style-type: square;}
