HTML <ol> Tag

The <ol> tag in HTML is used to create ordered lists on a webpage. Ordered lists are typically used to display a list of items in a specific order, such as a numerical or alphabetical order.

Below is a table that explains the main tag attributes of the <ol> tag:

Attribute Description
type Specifies the type of numbering for the list items. Possible values include 1 (numbers), A (uppercase letters), a (lowercase letters), I (uppercase Roman numerals), and i (lowercase Roman numerals).
start Specifies the starting value of the first list item. The default value is 1.
reversed If present, the list items will be numbered in reverse order.

Below is an example of how to use the <ol> tag with some fictional data:

<ol type="i" start="5">
  <li>First item</li>
  <li>Second item</li>
  <li>Third item</li>
</ol>

This example will produce the following ordered list:

  1. First item
  2. Second item
  3. Third item
