This is a pretty slick little element. I used it a lot to format some of my pages. By nesting these tags you can get some pretty good indentation. In the early days this was about the easiest way to do it. But when you were coding in a text editor, without the benefit of a WSYWIG display, it was real easy to forget the </dl> and you wouldn't see it until you loaded your page in a browser. Oh well, just be careful.
