<br> is an empty element without a closing tag (it defines a line break). In XHTML, XML, and future versions of HTML, all elements must be closed. Adding a slash to the start tag, like <br />, is the proper way of closing empty elements, accepted by HTML, XHTML and XML. Even if <br> works in all browsers, writing <br /> instead is more future proof.
@ HTML tags are not case sensitive: <P> means the same as <p>. Plenty of web sites use uppercase HTML tags in their pages. @ Attribute values should always be enclosed in quotes. Below is a list of some attributes that are standard for most HTML elements: Attribute class id Value class_rule or style_rule id_name Description The class of the element A unique id for the element
style title
style_definition tooltip_text
An inline style definition A text to display in a tool tip
