<P>
The BR tag is used to force line breaks within text. Normally, linebreaks
are treated as a space by browsers (except inside the <A HREF="../block/pre.html">PRE</A> tag).
The optional CLEAR attribute is used when you have an <A HREF="../special/img.html">IMG</A> image
in your text. If that image uses ALIGN=LEFT or ALIGN=RIGHT, the text
will flow around it. If you have text you want below the image, you
can do this with <BR CLEAR=LEFT> or CLEAR=RIGHT to force scrolling
down to a clear left or right margin, respectively. Using CLEAR=ALL will
scroll down until both margins are clear. CLEAR=NONE is the default,
and does nothing.
<H2>Notes:</H2>
<UL>
<LI>Some people use multiple BR tags to force whitespace. This is not
required by the specs, so it may not work in all browsers.
