<p>
Paragraph

<br>
Line Break
Forces new line without blank line separator Lesson 4

<hr> <hr width=X size=X align=left|right noshade>
Hard Rule
Forces new line with solid line separator. Optional attributes width specifies the width of the line on the page, where X is absolute number of pixels or "X%" for a width relative to the browser window; size specifies the thickness of the line in pixels; align forces the line to be aligned to a side of the page rather than the center; noshade draws a solid line without 3D shading Lesson 4; Lesson 19; Lesson 20

<center>... </center> <p align=center>... </p>
Center Alignment
Aligns everything to the center of the page Lesson 20

<div align= left|center|right> ... </div>
Division
Aligns everything to left, center, or right side of page Lesson 20

<table>...</table> <table border=X cellpadding=Y cellspacing=Z>... </table> <tr>...</tr> <td align=left|center|right valign=top|middle|bottom rowspan=X colspan=Y </td>
Table
Simple table draws single pixel-width border and cell-wall divisions. Omitting the border attribute, or setting border=0 creates an invisble table. Values for border greater than 1 will create a thivker border around the table/ cellpadding is the amount of space (in pixels) between the cell contents and its walls. cellspacing determines the width of the inner cell walls. <tr> are table row defintions and <td> are table data definitions (one cell). Options for the <td> tags are for horizontal and vertical alignment within the cell. rowspan and colspan attributes can be used to create cells that stretch across more than one other cell.

Options for the `<td>` tags are for horizontal and vertical alignment within the cell. `rowspan` and `colspan` attributes can be used to create cells that stretch across more than one other cell.
