HTML Line Break Tags (<br>)

The <br> tag is used to fit a line break in your HTML content. It helps move the following text to the next line without creating a new paragraph.

Syntax

          This is the first part <br>
          and this part will be on the next line.
     

Note: This is a none-closing tag, meaning it doesn't need a separate ending tag.

Example

     <p>This is line one.<br>
     This is line two.<br>
     This is line three.And this is line four.</p>

Use Cases

Writing addresses

     <p>Bhiwani<br>
     Haryana<br>
     India</p>
     

Note

Avoid using multiple <br> tags to produce space between lines. For proper distance, it’s better to use CSS practice like margin or padding.
