Unordered Lists

In an unordered list, each item begins with a bullet rather than a number. The list itself is contained within <ul> and </ul> tags, and each item in the list is contained within <li> and </li> tags.

<ul>
  <li>This is item 1.</li>
  <li>This is item 2.</li>
</ul>
  • This is item 1.
  • This is item 2.

Unordered List Types

Your list doesn't have to use regular bullets - it could also use discs (unfilled circles) or squares. You can do this using the type attribute, but this isn't valid in strict HTML. A better way to do this is with CSS, which we'll cover in a later section.
