only since HTML version whatever. In other words, not all browsers might support it.

Note: you don't need to create a stylesheet only for that. the type= is a supported element of the <ul> or <ol> tags. For <ul> it can be "disc", "circle", "square" (these are the only totally all-round supported values. any other value requires a higher version of HTML or whatever). For <ol>, the value of type= can be "A", "a", "I", "i", or "1" (again, these are the only basic totally all-round supported values, unless your page is in HTML version whatever)

The syntax for normal lists is:
<ul>
    <li>
    <li>
    <li>
</ul>

Or instead of <ul> (unordered list) use <ol> (ordered list). Those lists always have idents in the form of bullets, numbers, etc...

To have the same effect but without the bullets, numbers, etc, you need to create a definition list instead of a normal list:

<dl>
    <dt>
    <dd>
</dl>

Where <dt> is the term being used in the definition and <dd> the definition itself. They have the same ident as in a normal list.

Thus all this can be done with normal basic HTML which every browser understands, no stylesheet manipulation or anything fancy is needed...
