html tips: bullet lists

In Response To: html tips: bullet lists (Daniel Murphy)

Thanks, Daniel! Omitting the "." does the trick. To flex what I've learned:

  • Bullet 1
  • Bullet 2
  • Bullet 3

    Here's the same thing indented (bracketing with the unordered list code you suggested):

    • Bullet 1
    • Bullet 2
    • Bullet 3

    It seems that the ul code can be placed inside itself to create an embedded list:

    • Bullet 1
      • Bullet 1a
      • Bullet 1b
      • Bullet 1c
    • Bullet 2
    • Bullet 3

    Here's square bullets:

    • Bullet 1
    • Bullet 2
    • Bullet 3

    And hollow-circle bullets:

    • Bullet 1
    • Bullet 2
    • Bullet 3

    Finally, adding layers of complexity:

    • Bullet 1
      • Bullet 1a
      • Bullet 1b
      • Bullet 1c
        • Bullet 1c1
        • Bullet 1c2
        • Bullet 1c3
          • Bullet 1c3a
          • Bullet 1c3b
          • Bullet 1c3c
    • Bullet 2
    • Bullet 3

    What I experienced here, and in the past, leads me to believe that a "HTML guide for dummies" would be most welcome for this site. It's not just a matter of searching for the relevant help; it's also that the instructions you find might work for some sites/pages/situations but not for others. For example, the directions here showed the insertion of a dot/period before the "li." I don't see how I'm supposed to guess that it might work only if the dot is deleted, at least not at my level of HTML knowledge.
