Adding Spaces and Breaks

Adding spaces and breaks.

Sometimes Dreamweaver doesn't like to put spaces where you want them.  This is easy to remedy.  There are two codes we use to create breaks.  The code <br> is used to create a break in the line. A new line will begin, but there will be no space between the current line and the next.  If you want to make a blank line between the current line and the next, you should do so using the <p> code.  Neither of these codes requires a closing code </p> or </br>, but if you feel comfortable putting one it, it will work just fine.

Let's try this out.

Using the text in the paragraph above, insert a break and a blank line/new paragraph.  Note that the paragraph code does not affect indentation. Intro to HTML
