line breaks

  • Hi all,

    Shouldn’t it be possible to create some vertical white space by using the html code? :

    <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />

    It’s not working, so I’m wondering if anyone can give me a clue on this.

    Thanks,

    Wolfy

  • Hi,

    You can use <p></p> instead of
    </br> into your code.

    Check this code in HTML format.

    Thanks,

    Shane G.

    Thanks Shane, but still only a single break, no white space.

    Just wonder how to create vertical white space, between paragraphs for instance. I can put as many <b /> as I want yet I only get the single break.

    Here is what I came up with. 

    <p style="margin-top: 50px; margin-bottom: 50px;">
This creates white space.
</p>

    the right way to do it is to style your <p> tags accordingly inside your stylesheet.

    Whilst I agree 110% that this should be handled by CSS and not markup, I’d argue that it depends upon where you want to create the white space as to what you style and how.

    @ whooami: Right thanks, but if I put it in my style sheet I cannot arbitrarily adjust the amount of white space I want per post, I think… This is my solution to create some white space within a post. Though there is probably a better solution than I have thought of here.
