Paragraph Break Test Document

This document illustrates the need to include paragraph tags in your HTML sources. If you do not include <P> tags in your documents, your document will appear as one long paragraph (perhaps with some breaks if you use other elements such as lists or headers). This document does not include any P tags. Although there is a blank line before this sentence in the HTML source, there is no P tag, so the browser will not recognize the start of a new paragraph. It should appear as one long paragraph in your browser. In HTML 2, there is no requirement to close a P tag. However, it is good practice to do so since HTML 3 introduces extra attributes for the P tag (such as center) that will work more cleanly if P tags are closed.
