The horizontal rule tag "<hr />" displays a shaded horizontal line
across the screen "page." This can be an excellent way to visually
separate sections of a Web page.
Unlike most tags in HTML, the <hr /> tag has no closing tag, thus
the " /" (again, with a space before the slash) is placed at the end
of the tag to make it XHTML compliant.
