What NOT to do

Lining things up

There are two alignment controls you need to know about:

Align - left, center and right

Valign - top, middle and bottom

You can use these controls in most of your HTML Tags. For example, if you are putting an image on your page, and you want it be on the right side, you should include ALIGN=RIGHT in your <IMG> tag. For example: <IMG SRC=mypicture.gif HEIGHT=69 WIDTH=200 ALT="my picture" ALIGN=RIGHT>

You can also line things up using LISTS. There are ORDERED LISTS: <OL> and UNORDERED LISTS: <UL>. Both are used the same way. The difference is that numbers appear before each item in the ORDERED LISTS, and dots appear before each item in the UNORDERED LISTS.

To make a list, you first use the opening list tag - either <UL> or <OL>, Then before each LIST ITEM you use the <LI> tag. You don't need to use a closing </LI> tag. For example:

<OL>
<LI>
This is the first item
<LI>
This is the second item
</OL>
  1. This is the first item
  2. This is the second item


<UL>
<LI>
This is the first item
<LI>
This is the second item
</UL>
  • This is the first item
  • This is the second item
