## DIR and MENU

These elements have been part of HTML from the early days. They are intended for unordered lists similar to `UL` elements. User agents are recommended to render `DIR` elements as multicolumn directory lists, and `MENU` elements as single column menu lists. In practice, Mosaic and most other user agents have ignored this advice and instead render `DIR` and `MENU` in an identical way to `UL` elements.

`DIR` and `MENU` are deprecated in HTML 4.0.
