Information Object
Line Break
Definition
A line break refers to the forcible division of text onto separate lines. Text is sometimes presented with no punctuation separating different segments but with each segment appearing on a line by itself. When it is necessary to preserve these separations a line break should be forced.
Syntax and Markup
This is an empty element (i.e., only a single tag ending in “/” is used, rather than the usual start and end tags).
Example
<code>while( i < limit ) <br/>
i++;<br />
</code>
