The <strong>List</strong> view style will display every row of the view as part of an HTML list construct. For example:
<ul>
<li> Row 1 </li>
<li> Row 2 </li>
<li> Row 3 </li>
<li> Row 4 </li>
</ul>

You may select whether or not the list is <em>ordered</em> which just means whether or not it uses numbers instead of the bullet:

<ol>
<li> Row 1 </li>
<li> Row 2 </li>
<li> Row 3 </li>
<li> Row 4 </li>
</ol>

The list style also uses a <em>row style</em> which means that it doesn't care what the actual output for each row of the view is.
