HTML line break in paragraph

The HTML line break(<br />) tag is used to break the line. It is useful when you are writing the address of someone where you need division. The <br /> tag is self closed tag of HTML, or in simple words <br />has no closing tag. You can use it wherever you want to break the line of a paragraph or just a line.

HTML line break example:

1<p>
2  Street	108 Greenwood Square,<br/>
3  City/Town	Snow Hill,<br/>
4  State/Province/Region	Nebraska,<br/>
5  Zip/Postal Code	28580,<br/>
6  Phone Number	(252) 747-2490,<br/>
7  Country	United States
8</p>

Output of above example:

Street 108 Greenwood Square,
City/Town Snow Hill,
State/Province/Region Nebraska,
Zip/Postal Code 28580,
Phone Number (252) 747-2490,
Country United States

As you in the above example, the paragraph is broken into multiple lines. The text after <br /> will start at the new line.

Without <br /> example:

1<p>
2  Street	108 Greenwood Square,
3  City/Town	Snow Hill,
4  State/Province/Region	Nebraska,
5  Zip/Postal Code	28580,
6  Phone Number	(252) 747-2490,
7  Country	United States
8</p>

Output of above example:

Street 108 Greenwood Square,City/Town Snow Hill,State/Province/Region Nebraska,Zip/Postal Code 28580,Phone Number (252) 747-2490,Country United States
