Last time we discussed HTML Paragraphs.  In this lesson, we are going to discuss HTML Line Breaks and show how they can be used. What does the HTML Line Break tag do?  An HTML Line Break tag adds a single line break to your text.  In contrast, the HTML Paragraph tag adds a double line break to your text. What does the HTML Line Break tag look like?

• The HTML Line Break tag is similar to the HTML Paragraph tag
• Use of the HTML Line Break tag is a matter visual preference.
