You mean the <br> tag, right? There's always going to be a single line break
as far as I know, but for XHTML (which is the new standard) you type it as
<br />. One of the big things about XHTML  is closing your tags, no lazy
coding. <p> better be closed with </p> etc, but with tags like <br> <hr> and
such, there is no closing tag to be enforced, so those unclosed tags get the
change of having the space and a slash. <br /> <hr />, and so on.

There's a good article explaining the differences between HTML and XHTML on
the WDVL site if you want to take a look. It explains it quite well:

Hope that helps,

Ali
