(Page 1 of 4 )
Welcome to the fourth part of a seven-part series on the BlueTrip CSS framework. In this part, I explain how to use the framework's default styles to enhance the visual appearance of both ordered and unordered HTML lists. This is an easy and straightforward process.
If you ever wondered what makes a CSS framework a solid web design tool, then you may realize that it must provide a well-trusted set of style resetting classes and a clean background grid, plus the ability to quickly style common HTML elements in different ways, such as headers and paragraphs, lists and links, forms and tables, and so forth.
Fortunately, nowadays there's a group of CSS frameworks that suit most of these requirements. This list includes BlueTrip, which claims to put together the best features offered by BluePrint CSS and Tripoli (hence its name). So, if you're a web designer who's searching for a comprehensive guide that shows you how to work with this popular CSS framework, then this group of articles might be the material that you need.
And now that you've been introduced to the main goal of this series, it's a good time to review the topics that were covered in the last article. In that article I developed a few basic examples that demonstrated how to use the "thin" and "caps" CSS classes that come with BlueTrip to produce some elegant variations of H2 headers.
Nonetheless, when it comes to styling text-based web page elements quickly, BlueTrip offers numerous interesting and appealing possibilities. Thus, in this fourth part of this series I'm going to discuss how to style both ordered and unordered lists using the default CSS classes provided by BlueTrip.
Now, it's time to take a closer look at the specific capabilities offered by the BlueTrip CSS framework.
