HTML Paragraph Tutorial

Browser Support

A double-line break is created in a web page by using the HTML paragraph tag.

The space between this short paragraph and the previous one was caused by coding a paragraph tag between them.

Here's how to code a paragraph:

This is one sentence.
<p>
This is another sentence.
</p>

A web page with that code on it would look like this:

This is one sentence.

This is another sentence.

You can see where I inserted the paragraph tag is where an empty line is added. Note that I indented the text and colored it green to set it apart.

Also note that you should close each paragraph you open, and you should close one before opening another.
