Text documents are often broken up into several sections and subsections. Each section is usually
prefaced with a short title or heading that attempts to summarize the topic of the section it
precedes. The font of the section headings are usually larger and bolder than their subsection
headings. This document uses headings to introduce topics such as HTML Documents, HTML Tags,
Heading Tags, etc. HTML heading tags can be used to format plain text so that they render in a
browser as large headings. There are 6 heading tags: h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, and h6. Tag h1 is the
largest heading and h6 is the smallest heading.
Paragraph Tag
This is a paragraph. We often separate a long set of sentences with vertical spaces to make the
text easier to read. Browsers ignore vertical white spaces and render all the text as one single
set of sentences. To force the browser to add vertical spacing, wrap the paragraphs you want to
separate with the paragraph tag
This is the first paragraph. The paragraph tag is used to format vertical gaps between long pieces
of text like this one.
This is the second paragraph. Even though we added a deliberate gap between the paragraph above
and this paragraph, by default browsers render them as one contiguous piece of text as shown
here on the right.
This is the third paragraph. Wrap each paragraph with the paragraph tag to tell browsers to
render the gaps.
