Question

In following example:

I\'m using
to force Line2 to go to next line, but as far as I know

Answer 1

Using CSS you can control the line-height property of any element.

someElement {
    line-height:12px;
}

Now you may simply set this for an element, or use it on the entire HTML to provide uniformity across the document. This is safe, cross-browser compatible and easy to use.

Answer 2

Normally, using <br /> is old way of breaking a line. You should use <p>, <div> or some block level elements and give them top or bottom margins.

p {
   margin-top:5px;
   margin-bottom:5px
}

Answer 3

1. I add a <div>, best way for me, with CSS margin. Or,
2. The <p> tag.

Answer 4

Use differents blocks :

<p>Line1</p>
<p>Line2</p>

Answer 5

Use padding & / or margin css attributes.

Answer 6

You can use css line-height property along with <br/> tag to control spacing between lines.

<style>
.small
{
    line-height:100px;
}
</style>

<p class="small">
This is a paragraph with a smaller line-height.<br />
This is a paragraph with a smaller line-height.<br />
This is a paragraph with a smaller line-height.<br />
This is a paragraph with a smaller line-height.<br />
</p>
