code:
<BR>
will also work, saving you 3 whole keystrokes and a whole bunch of electrons from being needlessly sent to their graves.

If I remember correctly, 'br' will only put in 2/3 the space of 'p'.
'br' is a standard line break, 'p' is new paragraph which introduces extra space.

A line-break is a line-break in HTML coding. And, according to the W3 organization, THE organizational body of HTML specifications:
quote:
We discourage authors from using empty P elements. User agents should ignore empty P elements.
9.3.2 Controlling line breaks
A line break is defined to be a carriage return (
), a line feed (
), or a carriage return/line feed pair. All line breaks constitute white space.
The white space line-break is dependent only on the current font.

I sit corrected. The code that will work in every instance is:
code:
<p> </p>
It does give a larger space.

... and two BRs
code:
<BR><BR>
will give more space than one paragraph.
code:
<P> </p>
and save you 5 keystrokes!

And what are you going to do with those keystrokes you saved? :O)
You are correct.

I cannot think of a comeback to that ne, darn.
{Wierd thing happened on my way to reply. I thought I typed a capitol 'I' and jumped to settings or something, back did not work. Maybe I hit ctrl-I or ctrl-shift-I.}
