2. Type the definition term and press Enter (Return) when you are finished. Dreamweaver indents
the next line.
3. Type the definition data and press Enter (Return) when you are finished.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you have finished your definition list.
5. Press Enter (Return) twice to stop entering definition list items.
If you have an extended definition, you may want to format it in more than one paragraph.
Because definition lists are formatted with the terms and their definition data in alternating
sequence, you have to use the line break tag,
(or
for XHTML documents), to create blank
space under the definition if you want to separate it into paragraphs. Press Shift+Enter (Shift+Return) or click
the Line Break button on the Insert bar to enter one or two
tags to separate paragraphs with one or
two blank lines.

Creating Lists 15
When you insert a definition list, Dreamweaver denotes it in code using the
...
tag pair.
Definition terms are marked with a
tag, and definition data uses the tag. A complete definition
list looks like the following in HTML:
- Capital
- Sum owed by a business to its owners. See Owner??™s Equity.
- Cash
- Total of currency, coins, money orders, checks, bank
drafts, and letters of credit the firm has on hand or in bank
accounts from which money can be drawn immediately.
