Horizontal Line Tag
To separate content or sections visually in a webpage, HTML offers the <hr> tag. This tag is used to draw a horizontal line across the width of the page or container.
What is <hr> Used For?
The <hr> tag stands for “horizontal rule.” It’s typically used to:
- Divide content into sections
- Create a break or transition between themes
- Add a visual boundary without relying on CSS
This tag does not contain any content and is treated as an empty element, meaning it does not require a closing tag.
Basic Syntax
Here’s how the <hr> tag is used:
<hr>
You can place it anywhere within the body of your document where you want a visual separator.
