When you think of a complex hierarchical organization (which is how most multi-page Web sites end up), the easiest way to describe the structure is in a set of nested lists XHTML lists can contain other lists, and this can be a great way to organize data Nested lists are a great way to organize a lot of information, but they can be complicated You can use some special tricks to make parts of your list appear and disappear when needed In the sections Hiding the inner lists and Getting the inner lists to appear on cue, later in this chapter, you expand this technique to build a menu system for your pages

Building a nested list
Begin by creating a system of nested lists without any CSS at all Figure 3-3 shows a page with a basic nested list No CSS styling is in place yet, but the list has its own complexities: The primary list has three entries This is actually a multi-layer list The top level indicates categories, not necessarily links Each element in the top list has its own sublist A second layer of links has various links in most elements

Creating Dynamic Lists
The Web Development element has another layer of sublists The general layout of this list entry corresponds to a complex hierarchy of information like most complex Web sites The list validates to the XHTML Strict standard It s especially important to validate your code before adding CSS when it involves somewhat complex XHTML code, like the multi-level list A small problem in the XHTML structure that may go unnoticed in a plain XHTML document can cause all kinds of strange problems in your CSS Here is the code for the nested list in plain XHTML:
