In an ItemizedList, each member of the list is marked with a bullet, dash, or other symbol.
Formatted as a displayed block.
DocBook specifies neither the initial mark nor the sequence of marks to be used in nested lists. If explicit control is desired, the Mark attribute should be used. The values of the Mark attribute are expected to be keywords, not representations (numerical character references, entities, and so on.) of the actual mark.
In order to enforce a standard set of marks at your organization, it may be useful to construct a customization layer that limits the values of the Mark attribute to an enumerated list.
Introductory material may appear before the first list item.
These elements contain itemizedlist: appendix, article, bibliodiv, bibliography, blockquote, caption, entry, example, footnote, legalnotice, listitem, note, revdescription, section, sidebar, textobject.
The following elements occur in itemizedlist: listitem, title, titleabbrev.
Mark contains a keyword indicating the type of mark to be used on items in this ItemizedList. DocBook does not provide a fixed list of appropriate keywords.
Spacing indicates whether or not the vertical space in the list should be minimized.
