HTML Element: <hr>
[this page | pdf | back links]
The HTML <hr> element indicates a
thematic change in the content. Often it is rendered as a line across the
window.
The attributes
it can take are HTML
global attributes and HTML event attributes.
It used to support the align, noshade,
size and width attributes, but these are no longer supported in
HTML 5.
To create or access such
an element in JavaScript
see here. The
corresponding HTML DOM
object supports standard
DOM properties and methods. The default style applicable to this element is
shown here.
