HTML <li> Tag Tutorial

The HTML <li> tag is used to define a list item within an ordered or unordered list. It stands for "list item".

Here is an example of an unordered list using the <ul> tag and the <li> tag:

    <ul>
      <li>Item 1</li>
      <li>Item 2</li>
      <li>Item 3</li>
    </ul>
    

And here is an example of an ordered list using the <ol> tag and the <li> tag:

    <ol>
      <li>Item 1</li>
      <li>Item 2</li>
      <li>Item 3</li>
    </ol>
    

The <li> tag can also be used within nested lists to create sub-lists within a main list. Here is an example of a nested list:

    <ul>
      <li>Item 1</li>
      <ul>
        <li>Sub-item 1</li>
        <li>Sub-item 2</li>
      </ul>
      <li>Item 2</li>
    </ul>

Here are the main attributes of the <li> tag and their use:
