Lists: Front Page 98
Create an Unordered List

Overview The easiest way to order information on a web page is to create a list.

Many web pages contain lists of links organized according to categories.

You can make several different types of lists:
  • An unordered list (such as this one) uses bulleting.
  • An ordered list uses numbers or letters
  • A definition list is used to create a glossary of terms or to add a brief description to each list item.
  • You can create nested lists, i.e., lists within lists. These are especially useful if you want to display an outline on your web page.

 

 

An unordered list uses a bullet to indicate the list item.

To quickly insert an unordered list in a document with FrontPage 98, click on  the Bulleted List button on the Format toolbar.

By default this list will use a bullet for each list item.
