I added a plain list to my file:

...
   - term1 :: this means something
   - term2 :: this means something else
   - term3 :: and something different still
...

fully expecting the term and the description rendered in HTML to be on 
the same line as is shown in the Latex published Org Mode manual.  But 
the items were rendered as:

...
   term1
       this means something
   term2
       this means something else
   term3
       and something different still
...

I suspect this might be an HTML artifact, nevertheless, how would I 
convince org-mode to arrange for the HTML rendering to attempt to keep 
the terms and descriptions on the same line?  An example or reference 
would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
