If you have tested the examples given on previous pages, you noticed that all the text appears in a continuous paragraph. Web pages need some coding to tell it when to go to the next line or start a new paragraph.
See the example in action.
| P | Paragraph. Similar to "ENTER" twice in word processing. Creates a space between two sets of text or objects vertically. |
| BR | BReak (line). Similar to "ENTER" once in word processing. Goes to the next available line. BR is not a set. It does not have an ending tag. |

<html> <head> <title> Welcome to David's web page. </title> </head> <body> <p> Hi there! Thanks for visiting my web page. There isn't much here right now, but come back soon and see the changes! </p> <b>This text is bold.</b> <br> <i>This text is italisized.</i> <br> <u>This text is underlined.</u> <br> This text is back to normal. <p> <b><i>This text is bold and italisized.</i></b> <br> <u><b>This text is underlined and bold.</b></u> </p> </body> </html> |
| Note : If you use multiple BR tags in succession, the browser will usually default to display only two of them. |
