The definition list is used to create a list of terms associated with their definitions, like a glossary. It created your list with staggered margins. This tag is also used to create margins, since it doesn't place any bullets or numbers in front of the list. Although, the <UL> tag is used more commonly which is discussed next. The definition list begin with the <DL> </DL> tag and needs to be enclosed with the <DT> and <DD> tags respectively.
DT
The <DT> </DT> tag is used to define the Definition Term. This tag must be placed within the <DL> tag. The word or phrase that you place in this tag is not intended.
DD
The <DD> </DD> tag is used to define the Definition itself. This tag always follows the <DT> tag and is placed within the <DL> tag. The definitions are indented.
