When you use HTML to write text, checking the results is important because you don't know how your HTML will be displayed in a different browser. 

As you are writing code, have different browsers open and bring your page up periodically to be viewed.

My default browser is Internet Explorer and when I bring it up in Netscape, it  displays the same code, sometimes, quite differently.
You can use the horizontal rule tag  <hr />  to separate sections of your page:

example:  <hr /> example:  <hr width="100" color="red" />

Books on HTML:
  • Teach  Yourself HTML4  Sams  "Teach Yourself HTML 4" is an excellent book.   I continually use it forlearning and reference.  I personally give it 5 stars. 
  • HTML 4 for DUMMIES  *A Reference for the Rest of Us!

Basic Simple HTMLTags

----------------------
Not all computer displays are the same.  The text will be reformatted every time the user resizes his window.

Never try to format the text in your editor by adding empty lines and spaces to the text.  Using empty paragraphs <p> to insert blank lines is not a good idea.  Use the break <br /> tag instead. (But don't use the <br /> tag to create lists. Wait until you have learned about HTML lists.)

You might have noticed that paragraphs can be written without the closing tag </p>. Don't rely on it. The next version of HTML will not allow you to skip ANY closing tags.

HTML automatically adds an extra blank line before and after some elements, like before and after a paragraph, and before and after a heading.
