15. XHTML
MP Lists
The
<ul>, <ol> and <li> elements are used to create
lists in XHTML MP.
To
create an unordered list, use the <ul> element. Each list item
in an unordered list begins with a bullet. The <li></li>
tags are used to enclose every list item. This XHTML MP example
demonstrates how to create an unordered list:
(listsEg1.xhtml)
<?xml
version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC
"-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN"
"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd">

To
create an ordered list, use the <ol> element. An ordered list
has list numbering. List items are enclosed within <li></li>
tags. The following XHTML MP example demonstrates how to create an
ordered list.
(listsEg2.xhtml)
<?xml
version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC
"-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN"
"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd">

You
can make use of the start attribute of the <ol> element
to specify the starting number of the sequence, like this:
(listsEg3.xhtml)
<?xml
version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC
"-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN"
"http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd">

With
WAP CSS, you can have more precise control over the outlook of a
list. For example, you can control the bullet shape of unordered
lists and the list numbering of ordered lists (for example, changing
the list numbering from "1, 2, 3..." to "i, ii,
iii...").
Some
of the commonly used list properties of WAP CSS are discussed in the
"WCSS List Properties"
section of our WAP CSS tutorial.
