Ordered and Unordered Lists
There are two types of lists available with HTML - Ordered and unordered. An ordered list is a sequential list, either by number or by letter. An unordered list is a bulleted list. Both are quite simple to create in Dreamweaver.
To create the list, click on the proper icon in the Properties Toolbar:
 - Ordered List
 - Unordered List
The paragraph you are working on will become either a numbered list or a bulleted list. To create a new bullet, or number, just hit enter. If you would like an extra line below the bullet, hit SHIFT-enter. Once you hit enter again, you will see another bullet or number. When you have finished your list, just hit enter twice. The list will disappear and you'll be able to start on a new paragraph.
Bullets and numbers are not the only way to list information. You've probably seen letters, squares, etc. to present information on other pages. Modifying your list is almost as simple as creating it.
Once you have created your list, go to the Text Menu, select List, and select Properties. You will see a dialog box that looks like this:
Here you can customize your list. The top menu, List Type, gives you the option of having a Bulleted List, Numbered List, Definition List or a Menu List.
Once you have defined your list, you can define the Style of your list. For Bulleted Lists, you have the following style options:
For Numbered Lists, you have the following style options:
- Numbers
- Roman Numerals (small)
- Roman Numerals (large)
- Alphabet Small
- Alphabet Large
You can also specify a starting number for Numbered lists in the 'Start Count' field.
Unfortunately it isn't easy to nest lists in Dreamweaver. This still needs to be done in the HTML itself, so it might be a good idea to learn the code for lists if you plan on using them extensively.
