This is going to be a simple yes no question to confirm if what I understand is correct.
- Unordered list are basically any point form list like in a word processor using dots to list items;
- while ordered list are list that categorized the list according to a, b, c or 1, 2, 3.
Am I correct?

You should not sure a ordered list for something like a grocery list and you shouldn't use an unordered list for something like a recipe.

11,151 PointsYea.. The linked page has more info but you want to use an ordered list if it requires the list item to be done in a specified order. An unordered list can be used for bulleted type list (i.e. grocery list).http://webdesign.about.com/od/beginningtutorials/a/aabg121398.htm
