<ul> : Unordered List element

by

Introduction

The <ul> (Unordered List) element in HTML is used to create a list of items where the order or sequence of items is not important. Each item in the list is represented by the <li> (List Item) element.

Here’s an example of how to use the <ul> element:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>
  <ul>
    <li>First item</li>
    <li>Second item</li>
    <li>Third item</li>
  </ul>   
</body>
</html>

Output :

In this example, the default rendering is usually as a bulleted list.

You can also use the <ul> element with different list styles by changing the list-style-type CSS property.

For example, you can use list-style-type: square; to have square bullets.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>Document</title>
  <style>
    ul {
      list-style-type: square;
    }
  </style>
</head>
<body>
  <ul>
    <li>First item</li>
    <li>Second item</li>
    <li>Third item</li>
  </ul>   
</body>
</html>

Output :

The <ul> element is often used in scenarios where the order of items is not significant, such as a list of features, characteristics, or items in a navigation menu. It is a versatile element for creating visually structured and organized content on web pages.
