If you are changing existing text into a list, select the paragraphs first and then use the menu command or
the Unordered List button on the Property inspector or Insert bar.
Dreamweaver creates one list item for every paragraph. As you can see from Figure 15-1, list items are generally
rendered closer together than regular paragraphs. A list, unlike block elements such as paragraphs or
headings, is not formatted with additional space above and below each line.
In Dreamweaver, the word paragraph is used literally to mean any text designated with a paragraph
tag. Certainly, you can apply a heading format to an HTML list, but you probably won??™t
like the results: The heading format reinserts that additional space below and above each list item??”the ones
generally not used by the list format. If you want your list items to appear larger, change the font size
through Cascading Style Sheets, the Property inspector, or with Text ??? Size Change.

After a series of paragraphs is formatted as an unordered list, you can easily add additional bulleted items.
The basic editing techniques are the same for all types of lists:
n To continue adding items at the end of a list, simply press Enter (Return) to create each new list
item.
