to make the site according to w3, use <br /> instead of <br> br breaks the line so the text after it is shown in a new line.

That is slightly depended on what doc-type you are using, but yes for good measure use <br />. That way when you decide to say move to the xhtml doc-type things are already mostly correct Wink

w3 is no recommeding <br /> , xhtml due to broken tags in html. in order to pass w3 validation [which by the way this site doesn't have] the site should use xhtml. xhtml is easier to read than html.
