<dir>: The Directory element - HTML | MDN
This element implements the HTMLDirectoryElement
interface.
Like all other HTML elements, this element supports the global attributes .
compact
Deprecated
This Boolean attribute hints that the list should be rendered in a compact style. The interpretation of this attribute depends on the user agent and it doesn't work in all browsers.
Other list-related HTML Elements: <ol>
, <ul>
, <li>
, and <menu>
;
CSS properties that may be specially useful to style the <dir>
element:
The list-style
property, useful to choose the way the ordinal is displayed.
CSS counters , useful to handle complex nested lists.
The line-height
property, useful to simulate the deprecated compact
attribute.
The margin
property, useful to control the indent of the list.
