Directory lists
The directory list was originally intended to provide Web designers with an easy way to create multiple-column
lists of short items. Unfortunately, the most current browsers present the directory list??™s items in one
long list, rather than in columns.
The directory list format is applied in the same way as the menu list, and here as well, most browsers render
the format as an unordered list with bullets. To create a directory list, follow these steps:
1. In the current list, select one item.
2. In the expanded Text Property inspector, click the List Item button.
3. In the List Properties dialog box, from the List Type drop-down list (refer to Figure 15-16) choose
Directory List.
4. Click OK.
Summary
Lists are extremely useful to the Web site designer from the perspectives of both content and layout.
Dreamweaver offers point-and-click control over the full range of list capabilities. Keep these points about
lists in mind:
n The primary list types in HTML are unordered, ordered, and definition lists.
n Use unordered lists when you want to itemize your text in no particular order. Dreamweaver can
apply any of the built-in styles to unordered lists, or you can customize your own list style
through Cascading Style Sheets.
