(*Certain start tags and end tags can in certain cases be omitted and are implied by other tags.*) Elements can have attributes, which control how the elements work. For example, hyperlink are formed using the `a` element and its `href` attribute. ## List Types ### Ordered List 1. First item 2. Second item 3. Third item ### Unordered List * List item * Another item * And another item ### Nested list ### Definition List HTML also supports definition lists.
