The <P> Tag
The <P> tag defines start and end of a paragraph in the text. It is both a container as well as an empty tag. Whenever
you want to start a new paragraph, you can start the paragraph tag using <p> without closing the previous paragraph
tag. In order to avoid confusion, it is advised to use this tag as a container tag starting with the <p> tag and ending with
the </p> tag. The paragraph tag automatically inserts a blank line between two paragraphs.
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. It is mainly used when you want your text to come in next line without leaving a blank line in
between. This tag forces a line break wherever you will place it. It is an empty tag. It is used as under:
<p align=“center”> You use line <br> break tag to start a <br> new line </p>
It will be shown on your web page as under:
You use line
break tag to start a
new line
The <HR> Tag
The <HR> tag is used when you want to divide your web page into different sections. It is also used when you want to
draw a line between two paragraphs. It is an empty tag and does not need an end tag. It gives a horizontal ruler (line)
on the page and then the next element will be shown in a new line after the ruler.
