This element includes the global attributes.
compact Deprecated
This Boolean attribute hints that the list should be rendered in a compact style. The interpretation of this attribute depends on the user agent, and it doesn't work in all browsers.
Warning: Do not use this attribute, as it has been deprecated: use CSS instead. To give a similar effect as the compact attribute, the CSS property line-height can be used with a value of 80%.
type Deprecated
This attribute sets the bullet style for the list. The values defined under HTML3.2 and the transitional version of HTML 4.0/4.01 are:
circlediscsquareA fourth bullet type has been defined in the WebTV interface, but not all browsers support it: triangle.
If not present and if no CSS list-style-type property applies to the element, the user agent selects a bullet type depending on the nesting level of the list.
Warning: Do not use this attribute, as it has been deprecated; use the CSS list-style-type property instead.
<ul> element is for grouping a collection of items that do not have a numerical ordering, and their order in the list is meaningless. Typically, unordered-list items are displayed with a bullet, which can be of several forms, like a dot, a circle, or a square. The bullet style is not defined in the HTML description of the page, but in its associated CSS, using the list-style-type property.<ul> and <ol> elements may be nested as deeply as desired. Moreover, the nested lists may alternate between <ol> and <ul> without restriction.<ol> and <ul> elements both represent a list of items. They differ in that, with the <ol> element, the order is meaningful. To determine which one to use, try changing the order of the list items; if the meaning is changed, the <ol> element should be used, otherwise you can use <ul>.<ul>
<li>first item</li>
<li>second item</li>
<li>third item</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>first item</li>
<li>
second item
<!-- Look, the closing </li> tag is not placed here! -->
<ul>
<li>second item first subitem</li>

<!-- Same for the second nested unordered list! -->
