Ordered Lists
Ordered lists are a traditional way to store information on multiple things, but keeping them in an order.
Key Points
Displays a list of items in numerical order (1, 2, 3, 4, etc).
To create an ordered list you need to use the <ol> and </ol> tags.
Each item on your list needs to be stored in <li> and </li> tags.
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3
- Item 4
Adding an Ordered List
To add an ordered list to your page you must first create the list by opening your list with an <ol> tag and closing your list with the </ol> tag.
Inside of these tags, you can then create each list item by opening the <li> tag and closing it with the </li> tag.
You can create as many List Items as you need.
<ol>
<li>This is list item 1</li>
<li>This is list item 2</li>
<li>This is list item 3</li>
<li>This is list item 4</li>
</ol>

When styling an ordered list, it is important to decide if you’re styling the whole list or individual list items.
