It is one major problem though, even if it is not THE problem.

The <P> element will insert a line break, and is supported by all versions 
of HTML from the beginning of recorded HTML hestory.

HTML 3.0 has many more options for paragraph formatting, but I am not sure 
how to use them. I am only familiar with HTML 2.0 and prior versions.

Come on guys, the <P> element is so basic.
