The <P> Tag
The <P> and </P> tag defines the beginning and end of a paragraph in an HTML document. It is a
container tag, which means it has both an opening tag <P> and a closing tag </P>. The content written
between these two tags is treated as one complete paragraph.
Whenever you want to start a new paragraph, you should use the <P> tag. The browser automatically
adds space before and after the paragraph, which creates a clear separation between two paragraphs.
This improves readability and gives the text a neat structure on the webpage.
Each paragraph should be written within its own <P> and </P> tags. If the tag is not used properly, the
browser may still display the text, but the formatting may not appear organised.
The <BR> Tag
The <BR> tag is used when you want to start a new line, but do not want to start a new paragraph.
This tag is also known as line break. This tag forces a line break wherever you will place it. It is an
empty tag. It is used to write address, poems etc.
