Paragraphs

Most of your text will be in Paragraphs. Text in a paragraph is usually rendered with a blank line before and after it. Paragraphs start with <P> and end with </P>. Like Headings, Paragraphs can take the attribute ALIGN, with values of LEFT, CENTER and RIGHT.

<P ALIGN="RIGHT">Here's a Paragraph.</P>
renders as:

Here's a Paragraph.

Multiple spaces, tabs and returns in HTML are all treated as one space. Therefore, if you'd like some text to start on a new line, but still be a part of the block level element that it's in, use the line break element, BR. For example:

<P>I'd
like           this
line    broken<BR>
after 			the
word "broken".</P>

is rendered as:

I'd like this line broken
after the word "broken".

Notice that there is no </BR> because it is an "empty element."
