HTML <li> tag

Example

One ordered and one unordered HTML list:

<ol>
<li>Coffee</li>
<li>Tea</li>
<li>Milk</li>
</ol>

<ul>
<li>Coffee</li>
<li>Tea</li>
<li>Milk</li>
</ul>

Try it yourself! (more examples at the bottom of this page)

The <li> tag defines a list item.

The <li> tag is used in both ordered (<ol>) and unordered (<ul>) lists.

The <li> tag is supported in all major browsers.

The "type" and "value" attributes of the li element were deprecated in HTML 4.01, and are not supported in XHTML 1.0 Strict DTD.

Tip: Use CSS to define the type of list and list item.

DTD indicates in which DTD the attribute is allowed. S=Strict, T=Transitional, and F=Frameset.
