HTML Horizontal Line

,

Horizontal lines are very useful separating your page to different sections, to add a simple horizontal line just type <hr>, and you will get this:

But you can also create customized lines to fit with your webpage and to give you better mastery of the space you are manipulating on your page.

Examples:

gives this :

  • Color: color of the line : <hr color="#xxxxxx">
  • Size: Height of Line expressed in pixels : <hr size="x">
  • Width: Width of the line expresed either in percentage (%) or in pixels (in my example it is 50% of the original size) : <hr width="x%"> or <hr width="x">

More Advanced:

This :
<hr width="400" style="border: 3px dotted #0099CC" color="#000000" size="4">
gives:



In this case we used  style :
  • Border width is 3pixels (3 px)
  • It is dotted
  • Base color is black : #000000
  • Dots colored in blue: #0099CC
A last example to explain more, if still needed ;) :
This
<hr width="400" style="border: 2px dashed #C0C0C0" color="#FFFFFF" size="6">
gives:

In this case just above :
  • Border width is 2pixels (2 px)
  • It is dashed
  • Base color is white : #FFFFFF
  • Dashes colored in silver: #C0C0C0
Possible styles are:
  • dotted
  • dashed
  • solid
  • double
  • groove
  • outset
  • inset
  • ridge
That's all I have to say about the horizontal lines !!
