HTML Paragraph

An HTML paragraph is a block-level element used to display a block of text on a webpage. It's created using the  tag. Each paragraph element creates some space before and after the text, separating it from other elements on the page.

Basic Example

Here's a simple example of an HTML paragraph:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Paragraph Example</title>
</head>
<body>
    <p>This is a simple paragraph. It is enclosed in &lt;p&gt; tags.</p>
</body>
</html>

Multiple Paragraphs

You can have multiple paragraphs in a document, each enclosed in its own  tag:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Multiple Paragraphs</title>
</head>
<body>
    <p>This is the first paragraph. It introduces the content.</p>
    <p>This is the second paragraph. It provides additional details.</p>
    <p>This is the third paragraph. It concludes the discussion.</p>
</body>
</html>

HTML Paragraphs with Formatting

You can include formatting tags within paragraphs, such as , , and others:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Formatted Paragraph</title>
</head>
<body>
    <p>This paragraph contains <strong>strong</strong> and <em>emphasized</em> text.</p>
</body>
</html>

Important Points

Whitespace Handling: HTML collapses multiple spaces into a single space. If you need to preserve whitespace, consider using CSS or HTML entities like  .
Line Breaks: To insert a line break within a paragraph, you can use the   tag, though this is usually better handled with CSS for styling purposes.
