<ul> tag and css
Hi,
I got a question about the
- tag.
(X)HTML display's the element (tag) as block.
That means that, if I have 2 unordered list (
- ), the browser will
display them top of eachother. Now I want to change that to an inline display.
Something like that:
- list - list
- list - list
- list - list
Is that possible?
I try this but it did't work for me.
ul.list {display:inline}
'
Thx.

You'll probably want to float them. One to the left, and one to the right.
If that doesn't work, try putting them inside a DIV and then floating the DIVs.

Thx,
it works. I had to make some changes but it seems to work fine in Firefox, Opera and
even IE.
I thought that It will work with inline but it seems that it does't. Oke Thx.

Thx,
I try that, but not with enough satisfaction.
But when I test it wiht more unordered list's I came with a conclusion
that it will work when I see the
as a block... So the way that I've treid
'
and the way that 02bunced explaind is correct.
explenesion:
CSS- code
ul li {display: inline;}
(X)HTML-code
<ul>
<li>LIST A1</li>
<li>LIST A2</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>LIST B1</li>
<li>LIST B2</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>LIST C1</li>
<li>LIST C2</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>LIST D1</li>
<li>LIST D2</li>
</ul>
The output is:
* LIST A1 * LIST A2
* LIST B1 * LIST B2
* LIST C1 * LIST C2
* LIST D1 * LIST D2
So you can use float to work this out, thx Renegade.
And you can do it wiht inline.
I'm happy again.

Just curious...does it validate that way? I mean wrapping with
with no closing tags in the parent ul container?

Haven't you answered your question there Roo? It must close to be valid.

I just edit it. I think that it is valid now, Roo.
