Consider an hypothetical situation: the project requirements call for some vertical space between a certain element on your web page (picture an horizontal line, like an hr), and a second element (picture a textbox).
There's many ways you can achieve this effect. My instinct would be to give the second element some css style.. a margin-top, or a padding-top, depending on the situation. An hypothetical colleague, however, suggests simply placing a <br> tag between the two. Actually, since the hypothetical requirements call for some added vertical space right after that textbox, the colleague suggests: <hr><br>[textbox]<br><br> Yes, yes, <br> instead of <br />. It's hypothetical, don't worry about that detail. So, my question for the list is: why should we use css rules in this scenario instead of <br> tags ?
