I am trying to add a space but when I use the <br> tag the space is too big. I want to know how I can decrease the space with html or css.

@Kevin2Jan 13.2014 — Please define "space". Space between words? Space between lines? <br> should be used within a block level element such as <p> or <div> to indicate a line break, not between block level elements.

@cootheadJan 13.2014 — Hi there ytesfay80,

[indent]

CSS "[i]padding[/i]" and "[i]margin[/i]" attributes are used to control space between HTML elements. ?

A "Google" search will provide plenty of examples of their implementation. ?

not space between text.

the <br> causes a line break I want to be able to skip multiple lines without having to use a lot of <br> tags.

then use separate divs, and control the space between divs with your css
