In the HTML5 specification, no additional attributes are supported for any description list
element.
Note: When using description lists, it is possible to define multiple descriptions for
one item by adding each description in an additional <dd> element.
The following description list example defines the different ways to prepare espresso:
<dl>
<dt>Cappucinno</dt>
<dd>1 part espresso, 1 part hot milk, steamed milk foam</dd>
<dt>Macchiato</dt>
<dd>1 part espresso, 1 part foamed milk, shaved cocoa</dd>
<dt>Espresso</dt>
<dd>1 part espresso, 0 parts of anything else</dd>
</dl>
