Set Up Link List Blogger


To Change link Lists, you need to understand them first. Blogger doesn`t give the flexibility of WYSIWYG in everything, so we need to work through codes. Code is Poetry :D

ok, back to the point.

Each link list starts with <li> and ends with </li>, for example:

<li><a href='http://www.google.com'>Google</a></li>

See in the above code link, HREF is used for Links :) I hope you know it. To make changes, you must have got the picture, just change the Google`s link(http://www.google.com) above with the link you want and change "Google" with the link name you desire to put. To remove it, just remove a link list starting with <li> and ending with </li> :)

Simple? Lets gets a bit complicated :)

Now a set of Link Lists always start with <UL> and end with </UL>, for example:

<ul>
<li><a href='http://www.google.com'>Google</a></li>
<li><a href='http://www.Yahoo.com'>yahoo</a></li>
<li><a href='http://www.Msn.com'>Msn</a></li>
</ul>

Hope you got it, you`ll need it further ;)

Some templates have Drop-Down link lists. It's a bit complicated. Don`t worry, you`ll set it up :)

Drop Down Link Lists uses a combination of <ul> and <li> tags...here`s how:

<li><a href='http://www.google.com'>Google</a></li> [That`s a normal link list, you know]

Now, see the Drop Down link list code:

<li><a href='http://www.google.com'>Google</a>
<ul>
<li><a href='http://www.blogger.com'>Blogger</a></li>
<li><a href='http://www.feedburner.com'>Feedburner</a></li>
<li><a href='http://www.google.com/maps'>Google Maps</a></li>
<ul>
</li>                       

Now you see, a drop down link list starts with <li> but the expands with <ul> and then a set of link lists ending with </ul> and </li> tags. That`s like a game of sets. Well may be difficult for you to understand. You`ll just need to edit links. I hope you`ll make it.
