4. Spacing Continues • On the Notepad, you can actually use the spacebar, return & tab keys to type the tags, text and the different sections. • BUT the Browser & will IGNORE all of this. • everything will be as 1 long single spaced line or paragraph.

5. Spacing Tags: • Line Break: <br> Isn’t a set, use to break the line without putting a space between the lines, acts like a Single Space. • Paragraph: <p> </p> use to add space between paragraphs, acts like a Double Space. • Horizontal Rule: <hr> isn't a set, adds a visible horizontal line, used to make sections. • You can use as many of spacing tags as needed.

6. Comment Tag • When you want to add notes or comments to a section or the entire web page use this tag <!--comment--> • It doesn’t show up in the browser. • Comments should be short. • Can be used anywhere in the document.
