Vertical Space Of Specified Width

[OtagoHarbour]

I would like to use PHP to put a vertical space on a web page.

echo "<br \><br \><br \><br \>";

works fine on FireFox but probably breaks several rules in relation to strict xhtml and may not work as well on other browsers. Is there are more standard/correct/robust way of doing this? Thanks,Peter.

as per xhtml rule it is not violating anything. but for acheiving vertical spaces it is best and preferable to use box modeling with margin and padding. you will find about box modeling to w3s css tutorial.

Generally, you should use a div class and you won't violate any rules. Otherwise, please post a bit more code for a possible better answer.
