Synopsis

<br />

Inserts a line break in the content. This is one of the few presentational elements preserved in the XHTML 1.0 Strict and XHTML 1.1 DTDs.

Attributes

Core(id, class, style, title)

clear="none|left|right|all"

Deprecated. Specifies where the next line should appear after the line break in relation to floated elements (such as an image that has been floated to the left or right margin). The default, none, causes the next line to start where it would normally. The value left starts the next line below any floated objects on the left margin. Similarly, right starts the next line below floated objects on the right margin. The value all starts the next line below floats on both margins.
