                 PURE        On August 06, 1991, the first ever website named info.cern.ch was published by
                 FACT        Tim Berners-Lee at CERN in Switzerland.




            Now that you know how to create an HTML document and view it in the browser, let us explore
            some of the tags that can be used to align and style the page content in the body section.




                      <P> TAG

            <P> tag is used to insert a paragraph in an HTML document. A paragraph begins with the <P> tag and
            ends with the </P> tag. The browser automatically adds a vertical space before and after each <P> tag.

            ALIGN ATTRIBUTE

            A paragraph can be aligned using the Align attribute. Various values of the Align attribute are
            given in the table below.




                    Value                     Description                             Example



              Left                  Left-aligns the text.                <P Align = “Left”> Text goes here. </P>

              Right                 Right-aligns the text.               <P Align = “Right”> Text goes here. </P>

              Center                Center-aligns the text.              <P Align = “Center”> Text goes here. </P>

                                    Stretches the lines so that each line has
              Justify                                                    <P Align = “Justify”> Text goes here. </P>
                                    an equal width.





                      <BR> TAG


            By default, all the text we type in an HTML document appears in one line. We can insert a line
            break to shift the text to go to a new line. The <BR> tag is used to insert a line break in an HTML
            document. <BR> tag is an empty tag and does not require a corresponding closing tag.
