In a standard eXtyles configuration, a group of contiguous list paragraphs will be exported as a single XML list. Nested lists should be styled carefully to ensure that the nesting is reflected in the paragraph styles used.

Numbered and Bulleted Lists

Numbered and bulleted lists take the same paragraph style, and the label (e.g., the number or bullet) determines how the list is defined in the XML. For example, the following numbered list, styled with the Numbered/Bullet List Level 1 paragraph style, will produce the subsequent XML.

<list id="L2" list-type="order">
<list-item><label>1.</label><p>Identifying which species or resources potentially warrant protection from data release,</p></list-item>
<list-item><label>2.</label><p>Determining the appropriate level of protection warranted (legal or operational protection),</p></list-item>
<list-item><label>3.</label><p>Determining what information about protected species or resources (if any) can be released without resulting in harm, theft, or destruction, and</p></list-item>
<list-item><label>4.</label><p>Determining who should not have access to protected data.</p></list-item>
</list>

Note that in the XML the list type for numbered lists is “order,” and the numbers are enclosed in <label> tags.

Bulleted lists, such as the following, produce the subsequent XML:

<list id="L3" list-type="bullet">
<list-item><label>&#x2022;</label><p>Taxonomic Groups: Parks were not required to determine dissemination rules on a species-by-species basis.</p></list-item>
<list-item><label>&#x2022;</label><p>Specific taxa. Species or subspecies of management concern for which special data protection rules are warranted.</p></list-item>
<list-item><label>&#x2022;</label><p>Other Resources. Other natural or cultural resources of management concern.</p></list-item>
<list-item><label>&#x2022;</label><p>Other Locations. Specific locations, that if not protected, may inadvertently result in the public release of data that are otherwise protected.</p></list-item>
</list>

Note that in the XML the list type has been defined as “bullet,” and the bullet symbols (represented with their Unicode value &#x2022;) are provided within <label> tags.

Unnumbered Lists

Lists that are neither bulleted nor numbered should take the Unnumbered List paragraph style. The following unnumbered list will produce the subsequent XML:

<list id="L1" list-type="simple">
<list-item><p>Have a clearly defined process for data acquisition, storage, and archiving in place including security waivers for all personnel with access to the information.</p></list-item>
<list-item><p>Coordinate closely with data managers from IMD, cultural resources, and planning programs to ensure that there are similar processes in place between programs and via linked server data.</p></list-item>
<list-item><p>Clearly identify the individuals at the park and programs who have clearance and line approval to make decisions about data and its release and route all requests for data release through those individuals.</p></list-item>
<list-item><p>Develop and maintain lists of park resources that may qualify as resources at risk.</p></list-item>
<list-item><p>Identify the specific types of information about these resources that constitute protected information.</p></list-item>
<list-item><p>Determine the reduced level of resolution at which location information for particular resources can be shared without a confidentiality agreement.</p></list-item>
</list>
