<P>
The LI element is used to mark list items within a list. When the list
used is <A HREF="../list/ol.html">OL</A>, ordered list, the LI element will be rendered with
a number. The appearance of that number can be controlled with the TYPE
attribute. Similarly, inside an unordered list <A HREF="../list/ul.html">UL</A> the type of bullet
that is displayed can be controlled with TYPE. <A HREF="../list/dir.html">DIR</A> and <A HREF="../list/menu.html">MENU</A> can't
be controlled this way, as they are not required to be bulleted or
numbered. For ordered lists, you can also reset the sequence with the
VALUE attribute.
<P>
The TYPEs for ordered lists should give the following appearance:
<UL>
<LI>1 - Arabic numbers (default) (1, 2, 3, 4, ...)
<LI>a - Alphanumeric, lowercase (a, b, c, d, ...)
<LI>A - Alphanumeric, uppercase (A, B, C, D, ...)
<LI>i - Roman numbers, lowercase (i, ii, iii, iv, ...)
<LI>I - Roman numbers, uppercase (I, II, III, IV, ...)
</UL>
<H2>Notes:</H2>
<UL>
<LI>The attributes on LI are new with HTML 3.2, and so not supported by
all browsers yet.
<LI>Using LI outside its proper context to get a bullet in the text
is not guaranteed to work. A browser is free to ignore such an
out-of-context item.
<LI>When the LI element is used inside <A HREF="../list/menu.html">MENU</A> or <A HREF="../list/dir.html">DIR</A>,
it is not permitted to include <A HREF="../block/index.html">block
elements</A>, <A HREF="../list/index.html">list elements</A> or
<A HREF="../table/table.html">TABLE</A>s in the LI's contents.
</UL>
