public class Li<T extends Li<T>> extends StyledContainerElement<T>
Represents an HTML <li> (list item) element.

The <li> element defines an item in an ordered (<ol>) or unordered (<ul>) list. List items are the building blocks of HTML lists and can contain text, other inline elements, or even block-level elements and nested lists. In ordered lists, the value attribute can be used to override the default numbering.

Features:

  • Represents individual items in lists
  • Works with both ordered and unordered lists
  • Supports custom numbering in ordered lists
  • Can contain text, elements, or nested lists

Usage:


 // Create list items with text
 Li item1 = new Li("First item");
 Li item2 = new Li("Second item");

 // Create list item with an element
 Li linkItem = new Li(new Hyperlink("/page", "Go to page"));

 // Create list item with custom numbering
 Li customItem = new Li("Custom numbered item");
 customItem.setValue(10);

 // Add to a list
 Ul list = new Ul();
 list.addListItem(item1);
 list.addListItem(item2);
