Definition Lists

Create a definition list with a DL and /DL container.

Definition lists use 2 tags:

  • The DT tag creates a definition term (or title).
  • The DD tag creates the definition for that term.
Here's how it works:

<DL>
<DT> WWW
<DD> World Wide Web
<DT> HTML
<DD> HyperText Markup Language
</DL>

diplays as

WWW
World Wide Web
HTML
HyperText Markup Language

I would appreciate comments, corrections, and
suggestions for how I can improve this course.
