ul and li stles within .class Options

[Dbosch]

iwas wandering if there is a way to embed ul style within .class
for example i have .class that i use to format my <div>'s font, alignment, margins etc. but I cant seem to figure out how to assign that class specific ul style. I am trying to increase gap between li items.

I can create separate class for ul but how can i include that class within another class. do i need other class for li as well? basically I have no idea how to solve this if it's doable.
thanks in advance.

Well, to increase space between the li elements, you need to specify margin (or possibly padding) for the li elements. But you can select based on the class of the ul element:

CODE

ul.classname li { margin : ... }

or you can select based on the class of an element that contains the ul element:

CODE

.classname ul li { margin : ... }

thanks I'll try that. I wasnt specifying li after ul.class

why are you using any class for ul and li.

Presumably, to distinguish ul elements that serve one purpose from ul elements that serve other purposes. It's the normal way to use the class attribute.
