HTML Syntax

<p
   align = center | left | right
   class = classname
   dir = ltr | rtl
   id = value
   style = css properties
   title = text
   event = script
>

The P element renders text in paragraph form.

The end tag </p> guarantees that the paragraph is followed by extra space ( a blank line ), though it may normally be omitted, especially if the paragraph is followed by a block element. A block element is one that starts on a new line and is itself preceded by extra space, like another P element, for instance.

If a P element is used with no content, it acts as a spacer. The element inserts a blank line.

This element is a block element. All P elements start on a new line and are usually preceded by extra space.
