    The output should be like:

    Q1. some text here
    Q2. some text here
    Q3. some text here
    Q4. some text here
    Q5. some text here

    Can this be done using an ordered list in HTML?
    Or is there any other method in HTML?

    Gaurav I don't think that you can display text with help of
    ordered list tag
    You can use this
    Q1&nbsp some TEXT HERE<BR>
    Q2&nbsp some text here<br>
    Are you sure? This action cannot be undone.

    @ mahesh : I think your code prints like this.

    Numbered list :

    1. some text here
    2. some text here
    3. some text here
    4. some text here

    But, Gaurav asked to print Q1,Q2,...
    Is it possible to print like that?

    Yes, the output should be

    Q1.
    Q2.

    instead of
    1.
    2.
    3.

    Exactly what Pallavi said.

    hey Gaurav use like this
    Q1.&nbsp some text<br>
Q2.&nbsp some text<br>

    Well, if you want to do purely in HTML then it provides following kind of numbering in <li> tag

    • arabic numbers
    • lower alpha
    • upper alpha
    • lower roman
    • upper roman

    but if usage of style is allowed then using CSS it can be done so. Just give it a try.

    😀

    Thanks for the suggestion sookie. Currently, I don't know CSS, but I'll consult somebody who knows CSS.

    Hello,
    I suggest that you use break lines or a table with 0 in border to give a more organised text with ability to use effects, by the way , why you don't use an editor like dreamweaver and do what you wanna do in the design mode like you r doing in Microsoft word.
    good luck

    Gaurav,
    Look up CSS, I think you can tweak the bullet points (<li> to prepend Q to it).

    I think CSS is the only option to achieve such output.

    The following code explains about the ordered list in HTML. The list items are specified using the tag [*].And, the list items tag i.e, <li> is enclosed in the tag
    • .
      <html>
<body>
 
<h1>Sample Numbered list:</h1>
<ol>
<li>Hai!
[*]How
[*]are
[*]you
[/list]
</body>
</html>
      Output:
      Sample Numbered list:
      1. Hai!
      2. How
      3. are
      4. you
