-====Definition Lists==== 
  
-In addition to the common types of lists mentioned above, there also exists what we call a "definition list". Definition lists require the use of special DAISY styles.  +=====Q&A Archive=====
- +
-Definition lists generally consist of term/definition pairs - a term followed by its definition. These include glossary lists, definition lists, pronunciation lists, etc. +
- +
-<WRAP center round box 80%> +
-**Example** +
- +
-A glossary of terms would be a definition list: +
- +
-   mango: tropical fruit with sweet golden flesh +
-   lychee: tropical fruit with deep red leathery skin and clear white flesh +
-   carambola: star shaped tropical fruit with tart lemon-pineapple flavour +
-   rambutan: egg-shaped tropical fruit similar to lychees with leathery skin covered in soft red hairs +
-</WRAP> +
- +
- +
-There are two definition list styles in the [[public:nnels:etext:template-styles|NNELS Template]]: +
- +
-  * Definition Data (DAISY) +
-  * Definition Term (DAISY) +
- +
-Both styles are used together to create a definition list. When creating a definition list, we follow these steps: +
- +
-  - Select all the text that comprise the list (terms and values) and apply the ''Definition Data (DAISY)'' style.  +
-  - Select each definition term (i.e. mango, lychee, etc.) and apply the ''Definition Term (DAISY)'' style.  +
- +
-That's it. +
- +
-<note>Do not apply any other list style to Definition Lists.</note> +
- +
-This will give us the below output in XML: +
- +
-   <dl>  +
-     <dt>mango</dt>  +
-     <dd>tropical fruit with sweet golden flesh</dd>  +
-     <dt>lychee</dt>  +
-     <dd>tropical fruit with deep red leathery skin and clear white flesh</dd>  +
-     <dt>carambola</dt>  +
-     <dd>star shaped tropical fruit with tart lemon-pineapple flavour</dd>  +
-     <dt>rambutan</dt>  +
-     <dd>egg-shaped tropical fruit similar to lychees with leathery skin covered in soft red hairs</dd> +
-   </dl>  +
-   +
-Definition lists are not restricted to glossaries of terms. We use them for all term-description groups. Term-description groups may be names and definitions, categories and topics, or any other groups of term-description pairs. +

 **Q: Should this list be formatted using H2 and H3 for the countries and institutions, and Lists for the collections? Or should I used nested lists for all elements?** **Q: Should this list be formatted using H2 and H3 for the countries and institutions, and Lists for the collections?
