Because you can not use Carriage Returns (ENTER key), you must use either
Paragraph Breaks or Line Breaks for spacing purposes.
Paragraph Break -- <p> - Use whenever you want to begin a new paragraph. You may use an end tag for paragraph </p>, but it is not necessary. Example, If you insert a paragraph break here <p>
The next line will start here.
Line Break -- <br> - Use if you want to start a new line with less spacing
than a Paragraph Break. There is no closing tag for a Line Break. Example, if
you insert a line break here <br>
The next line will start here.
You have the option to set alignment of your Paragraph Text. You have 3
choices: Left, Right, or Center.
Left Alignment: <p align=left>
Right Alignment: <p align=right>
Center Alignment: <p align=center>
