The HR element draws a horizontal line across the document frame or window. Horizontal rules visually divide information into sections.

If not specified, the HR element defaults to a height of 2 pixels, and spans the width of the page.

The amount of vertical space inserted between a rule and the content that surrounds it depends on the user agent.

The HR element requires only a start tag; the end tag is forbidden.
