Float text at end of Unordered list?

How do I get some text to go at the end of an unordered list instead of the line below?

<ul>
<li>1</li>
<li>2</li>
<li>3</li>
</ul>
total items...

I'd like to have it display like

1 2 3 total items

instead of

1 2 3
total items

There are a number of ways you could do it but I suppose the simplest is to make them both display:inline.

e.g.


<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<style type="text/css">
.items{
margin:0;
padding:0;
list-style:none;
display:inline;
}
.items li{display:inline}
.total{margin:0;display:inline}
</style>
</head>

<body>
<ul class="items">
<li>1</li>
<li>2</li>
<li>3</li>
</ul>
<p class="total">total items</p>
</body>
</html>

Or float:left the list-items ?

Thanks, that fixed it. I had one of my styles wrong. I had .pagination ul { instead of ul.pagination and it wasn't even applying it to my list. Thanks
