BASIC HTML 101

Overall HTML format: Lists


The Definition List, named <DL> in HTML, is used to display a term and its definition:

First Term is specified by <DT>
Term Definition is specified by <DD>
Second Term is specified by <DT>
Term Definiton is specified by <DD>

Netscape uses this style in the bookmark file

link1 (yes, Netscape inserts <P>'s for spacing)
link2
link3

another link

Netscape even nests lists within lists to get indention

link
link
comment
link

another level of indention

link
link

</DL> ends the Definition List.
