HTML Paragraphs

HTML paragraphs are used to group and display blocks of text.
They help keep content readable and well-structured.

The <p> Element

The <p> tag defines a paragraph.

<p>This is a paragraph of text.</p>

• Browsers automatically add space before and after a paragraph
• Extra spaces and line breaks inside the tag are ignored

Paragraph with Attributes

The <p> element supports global attributes.

<p 
  id="intro"
  class="text-block"
  title="Introduction paragraph">
  HTML paragraphs organize written content on a page.
</p>

Attributes Used

• id → unique identifier
• class → grouping or styling
• title → tooltip text

Line Breaks Inside Paragraphs

To move text to a new line without starting a new paragraph, use <br>.

<p>
  HTML is easy to learn.<br>
  Practice makes it better.
</p>

Paragraph with Inline Elements

Paragraphs often contain inline elements.

<p>
  HTML is <strong>simple</strong> and 
  <em>easy to understand</em>.
</p>

Empty Spaces in Paragraphs

HTML ignores:

• Extra spaces
• Multiple line breaks
• Tabs

Example:

<p>

  extra spaces.
</p>
