CSS Lists (Cont.)

List—Shorthand Property
It is also possible to specify all the list properties in one, single property. This is called a shorthand property. The shorthand property used for lists, is the list-style property: 
   ul { list-style: square url("lamp.gif"); }
When using the shorthand property, the order of the values are: It does not matter if one of the values above are missing, as long as the rest are in the specified order.

All CSS List Properties
The number in the “CSS” column indicates in which CSS version the property is defined (CSS1 or CSS2).
