the <p> tag

The paragraph tag is <p> and is used to specify the beginning and end of a paragraph of normal styled text.

Make sure you close your paragraph tag </p> to make the html well-formed.

The formatting of a paragraph will depend somewhat on the browser, but will usually show a large space between adjacent paragraphs.

To insert a blank line you can use an empty paragraph tag: <p />
