Paragraphs

Paragraphs adjust to the width of the browser window and are seperated from previous and following text by some blank space. You mark the beginning of a paragraph with a paragraph begin tag (<p>) and the end of the paragraph with an end paragraph tag (</p>). Extra blank spaces and blank lines between the two tags are ignored.

     Call me Ishmael. Some years ago 
              - never mind how long precisely -
     having little or no money          in my purse and 
     nothing particular to interest
     me on shore, I thought I would sail about 

     a little and see the
     watery part of the world. - <b>Moby Dick</b> 
     <i>by Hermann Melville</i>
