What does br mean in html

The br is a tag in Html. Html   tag is used to break the line of text. This tag is useful when users have to write the poem, address, and code samples.

The   tag is an empty tag or unpair tag, i.e., there is no need to close this tag. But in the code of XHTML, we have to close the tag.

We can easily understand the br tag by an example. So, we will provide the following two examples.

Example 1: This example shows the code of how to use tag in the poem for link break.

<!Doctype Html>
<Html>   
<Head>    
<Title>   
Example: how to use <br> tag in poem
</Title>
</Head>
<Body bgcolor="red"> 
Hello User!...
<center>
Poem 
<br> <br>
<font color="blue">
Hold fast to dreams <br>    
For if dreams die <br>  
Life is a broken-winged bird <br>  
That cannot fly. <br>  
Hold fast to dreams <br>    
For when dreams go <br>    
Life is a barren field <br>    
Frozen with snow. <br>

</Body>
