The BR tag
===The BR tag===
Don't use '''BR''' tags to create visual space. Wrap your text in a '''P''' tag or a block level element such as a '''DIV''' and add a class or style if needed to control the visual space. The only appropriate place to use a '''BR''' tag would be for poetry, song lyrics and arguably address fields. When a screen reader encounters a '''BR''' tag it will stop reading, requiring the user to move forward to the next line manually. Using a double '''BR''' tag is therefore very cumbersome for users of assistive technology.https://www.w3.org/TR/2011/WD-html5-author-20110809/the-br-element.html
