HTML - <spacer> Tag

The HTML <spacer> tag specifies a whitespace.

This tag was not supported by the modern browsers. Instead you can use the <pre> , <br> tags or CSS properties.

Example

Consider the following example, where we are going to use the param tag.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

   <head>
      <title>HTML spacer Tag</title>
   </head>

   <body>
      Create some space <spacer type = "block" width = "50" /> here.
   </body>

</html>

When we run the above code, it will generate an output consisting of the text on the webpage. The <spacer> tag is available in Netscape 4 and higher version only.
