Workshop
You’ve learned how to create and customize lists in HTML. In this section, you’ll see
the answers to some common questions about lists, as well as some exercises that should
help you remember the things you’ve learned.
Q&A
Q My glossaries came out formatted really strangely! The terms are indented
farther in than the definitions!
A Did you mix up the
nition term), and the
time. There are too many d tags in definition lists.
Q Is it possible to change the amount that list items are indented, or remove the
indentation entirely?
A Yes, the properties used to control list indentation are margin-left and padding-
left. Some browsers use one and some use the other, so you need to set both of
them to change the indentation for your lists. You might need to use negative mar-
gins to get the text to line up the way you want.
