Formatting Unordered and Ordered Lists in CSS
The style and position of unordered and ordered lists can be formatted by CSS properties with list-style-type, list-style-image and list-style-position.
Syntax
The syntax of CSS list-style property is as follows −
Selector {
list-style: /*value*/
}
Style Ordered List With Upper Roman Marker
The following example illustrate the CSS list-style property and styles the ordered list. We have set the upper roman values for the ordered list −
list-style: upper-roman;
Example
Let us see an example −
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
ol {
list-style: upper-roman;
line-height: 150%;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
ul > ul{
list-style: circle inside;
}
li:last-child {
list-style-type: square;
}
</style>
</head>
