<DL> ... </DL> Definition List
|
DEFINITION The <DL> ... </DL> Encloses a collection of definition items <DD> in a definition list. This tag is usually used for glossaries or other situations where short, left aligned terms are followed by longer blocks of indented text. Definition lists are usually rendered by browsers with the term (<DT>) in the left margin and the definition (<DD>) on one or more lines indented slightly from the term. |
SUGGESTED STYLE/USAGE For lists where left-justified element, such as terms and definitions, are followed by longer, indented blocks of text, such as glossaries or a dictionary. Do not use <DL> to create an indented section of text. This is syntactically invalid html; it does not work. |
EXAMPLE <BODY> <DL COMPACT> <DT>html <DD>Hyper Text Markup Language </DL> </BODY>

- html:
- Hyper Text markup Language
