<BR>

Creates a single line break which is similar to hitting the enter key on your keyboard when you are writing a document in a word processor. The flow of text for the current line is stopped and all following text will be displayed immediately below the current line.

If you run multiple BR tags together, you can create a bigger vertical spacing between elements on your web page.
