Some HTML tags that I've recently started using are:

To put in a separator line, use the hr tag. It also implies a following line break br.


I often use this within a blockquote. So, first you enter the start blockquote tag, then the hr tag, then your text, then another hr tag, then the close blockquote tag.

Another tag that I use is the secret code font that lets us "old school" types communicate in a way that the "new school" won't understand. To do this, use the font face='brush script mt'.

This one adds the size sub-parameter to the font tag. The default used above is 3. This one is with size=4.

You may want to play around with the ALIGN, WIDTH, and SIZE attributes for some fun effects.

The "Width" attribute (as you can imagine) controls the width of the horizontal rule. It can either be in % or in pixels. For example, if I insert a horizontal rule that is 25% of the screen width, I would use the following: <HR WIDTH="25%">:


Let's say I want to move that line to the left. I would use the ALIGN attribute (acceptable values are LEFT, CENTER, or RIGHT...defaults to "center"). <HR WIDTH="25%" ALIGN="LEFT">:


Or, alternatively, say you want to align it to the right, you would write: <HR WIDTH="25%" ALIGN="RIGHT">:


You can also adjust how thick the line is with the "HEIGHT" attribute (only works in pixels). For example <HR WIDTH="25%" ALIGN="LEFT" SIZE="10">:


Of course, you'll see above that there is a "shadow" effect. If you don't want that, use the "NOSHADE" attribute, as follows: <HR WIDTH="25%" ALIGN="LEFT" SIZE="10" NOSHADE>:


There you go. Fun with horizontal rules (101).
