Web Page HTML Page 3 - Initial Browser Look


Welcome to my page! It is a great day to learn new things and seize life by the tail. I am making this page to share my ideas with you and help you learn how to create a web page. More about me: I am a teacher and I really enjoy teaching middle school students. My hobbies outside of school include snow skiing, travel, poetry and rafting. I hope you enjoy this page. I hope you will be back soon!Mr. Williams

 

The reason that the above text looks squished is because we are still missing a really important HTML tag. That tag is the <p> tag.

The <p> tag is a paragraph tag, and it breaks paragraphs by adding what would amount to two carriage returns on a typewriter or word processor. This makes a line break and one empty line to separate the paragraphs.

Open your text that you saved as an HTML document and add <p> tags where you want the text to be broken.

Example:

<html>

<head>
<title>Welcome to Mr. Williams Web Page!</title>
</head>

<body>

Welcome to my page!<p>
