Making a left hand side menu for my website.
Should I create a Unordered List and add them as list-item?
What way is the proper way.
Thanks

That's the usual way to make a menu. Often the menu will be contained in a DIV with headers being the menu section header and the unordered list elements comprising the menu items. Use CSS to style the list (say to remove the bullets and add a background) so that it looks the way you want your menu to appear. You may want to consider one of many JS frameworks/plugins to add some interactivity to your menu. One I've used is jQuery + fgmenu from the Filament Group (though the example below is not in the correct format for it).
<div id="nav">
<h3>Main</h3>
<ul>
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
</ul>
<h3>Other</h3>
<ul>
<li>Item 3</li>
<li>Item 4</li>
</ul>
</div>
