HTML: A Guide to Hard-Coding
Line Breaks <BR>
Line breaks are one of the simplest, yet most useful elements of HTML programing. However, one of the most confusing aspects of a line break is the difference between it and a paragraph <p>.
When you use a <p> tag, the browser will add a line before and after a paragraph. This may be what you want, but it may also negatively affect your design.
A <br> tag tells the browser to go to the next available line, usually just the next line. There are occasions where you may want to use two <br> tags in succession.
The code is very easy: you simply put in <br> when you want a break.
There is no closing tag, and there are no attributes to the <br> tag.
Save and reload in the browser.
