Go to the Student Blackboard
 |
Click the checkbox as you complete each step (double-click to erase). |
 |
Click the View It button for the Student Blackboard below. Notice that the browser displays a single paragraph. (Feel free to close the example browser example window after you see the results.) |
|
Insert multiple blank spaces in the middle of the paragraph, as well as multiple blank lines, in the Student Blackboard...in fact, go hog wild with the spacing! Then, click the View It button. Notice that the browser still only displays a single paragraph, demonstrating that spacing itself is ignored in the HTML file unless it is spacing defined by HTML elements. |
|
Insert the <P> tag anywhere in the middle of the paragraph and click the View It button. Notice that the browser displays two separate paragraphs. |
|
Insert the <BR> tag where you inserted blank spaces above and click the View It button. Notice that, while blank spaces are ignored, the <BR> tag is not! |
|
Insert the <HR> tag in the middle of the file and click the View It button....see how it draws a separator line that runs the width of the browser window? |
