How do you make a sublist?

chobo2 · July 5th, 2008, 07:21 PM

Hi

I have this code

Code:

 <ol class="HomeList">
            <li>New Website Design.</li>
            <li>"FlashCard Practice Quiz page" completely redone.</li>
            [list]
                    <li>Selection of quiz items now done in javascript.</li>
                    <li>Quiz game is now done in  javascript</li>
            </ul>
            <li>Removed use of Asp.net Ajax.</li>
            <li>"Contact Us page" completely redone.</li>
       </ol>

but I get this warning

Warning 1 Validation (XHTML 1.0 Transitional): Element 'ul' cannot be nested within element 'ol'. I:\Jap-Version\InterActiveJapanese.com-V3.1.1\InterActiveJapanese.com\Home.aspx 19 14 I:\...\InterActiveJapanese.com

How do I do a sublist of my items then?

OL (and UL) can only directly contain LI. So you have to nest the sublist inside a LI.

Code:

<ol>
  <li>...</li>
  <li>...</li>
  <li>
    [list]
      <li>...</li>
      <li>...</li>
    </ul>
  </li>
</ol>

don't feel bad, I didn't use sublists for awhile until someone was able to explain this too me. Meow is perfect. Your list needs to be inside the list item to be a "sublist", opening <li> blah then the entire HTML for the sublist and only THEN do you close the list item </li>. Good luck!
