CSS Lists

CSS Lists:
The CSS list properties allow you to:
·        Set different list item markers for ordered lists
·        Set different list item markers for unordered lists
·        Set an image as the list item marker

List

In HTML, there are two types of lists:
  • unordered lists (<ul>) - the list items are marked with bullets
  • ordered lists (<ol>) - the list items are marked with numbers or letters
With CSS, lists can be styled further, and images can be used as the list item marker.

Different List Item Markers

The type of list item marker is specified with the list-style-type property:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
ul.a {
    list-style-type: circle;
}

ul.b {
    list-style-type: square;
}

ol.c {
    list-style-type: upper-roman;
}

ol.d {
    list-style-type: lower-alpha;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<p>Example of unordered lists:</p>
<ul class="a">
  <li>Coffee</li>
  <li>Tea</li>
  <li>Coca Cola</li>
</ul>

<ul class="b">
  <li>Coffee</li>
  <li>Tea</li>
  <li>Coca Cola</li>
</ul>

<p>Example of ordered lists:</p>
<ol class="c">
  <li>Coffee</li>
  <li>Tea</li>
  <li>Coca Cola</li>
</ol>

<ol class="d">
  <li>Coffee</li>
  <li>Tea</li>
  <li>Coca Cola</li>
</ol>

</body>
</html>

 

 An Image as The  List Item Marker:

To specify an image as the list item marker, use the list-style-image property:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
ul {
    list-style-image: url('sqpurple.gif');
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<ul>
  <li>Coffee</li>
  <li>Tea</li>
  <li>Coca Cola</li>
</ul>

</body>
</html>

List - Shorthand property:

The list-style property is a shorthand property. It is used to set all the list properties in one declaration:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
ul {
    list-style: square inside url("sqpurple.gif");
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<ul>
  <li>Coffee</li>
  <li>Tea</li>
  <li>Coca Cola</li>
</ul>

</body>

</html>

How to handle XML with PHP

What is XML? The  eXtensible Markup Language  is a way to structure your data for sharing across sites. Some of the technologies that are crucial to the web like  RSS  (Real Simple Syndication) and  Podcasts  are special flavors of XML. The beautiful thing about XML is that you can easily roll your own for anything you need. XML is easy to create because it’s a lot like HTML…except you can make up your own tags. Let’s say, for example that you’re putting together a feed for a list of songs playing at your own radio station. We’ll keep this simple, so we’ll just encode the name of the artist, the title of the song, plus the time when the song was played. We make up a couple of tags called  <title>  and  <artist>  and wrap each of them around a  <song>  tag. We’ll create a dateplayed attribute for each song with the date and time the song was played. You might encode something like that in this manner. ...

XSL Before learning XSLT, we should first understand XSL which stands for E X tensible  S tylesheet  L anguage. It is similar to XML as CSS is to HTML.
