Spacer

The void HTML   element inserts a space in the document. The space can be between characters or between lines, or it can be a spacing rectangle, similar to an invisible image. The author can control horizontal-only spacing, vertical-only spacing, or block spacing (vertical and horizontal) as well. This element is only supported by Netscape, but since CSS can do the same task at a better level, later on even Netscape stopped supporting it. Its use is strongly discouraged.
