BASIC HTML TAGS
Let us learn about some basic HTML tags.
LINE BREAK <br> Tag
The web browser does not recognize any paragraph formatting in an HTML document. The line break
<br> tag is used to insert a new blank line or create a line break in an HTML document. It is an empty
tag and does not have any attribute.
