I disagree; I think differentiating between ordered and unordered lists is important. With unordered lists, the order doesn't matter, so user agents are free to sort them (e.g. alphabetize them). With ordered list, the original order is significant and must not be changed. <ul> is good for things like a list of known bugs in a program (in no particular order), while <ol> is more suitable for a list of steps to reproduce a certain bug (must be done in that order). /Jonas -- "I have switched banks and indicated as reason for closing the account that their home page is not w3c compliant." - Hugo Van Woerkom
