How to line-break from css, without using br /?

Impossible with the same HTML structure, you must have something to distinguish between Hello and How are you.

I suggest using spans that you will then display as blocks (just like a <div> actually).

p span {  display: block;}

<p><span>hello</span><span>How are you</span></p>

How can I force text in a new line?

you could try this, but it's not very pretty:

.text
{
    background-color:red;
    width:100px;
    word-wrap: break-word;
}

Line break (like br) using only css

It works like this:

h4 {
    display:inline;
}
h4:after {
    content:"\a";
    white-space: pre;
}

Example: http://jsfiddle.net/Bb2d7/

How to force a line break in a long word in a DIV?

Use word-wrap:break-word;

It even works in IE6, which is a pleasant surprise.

---

word-wrap: break-word has been replaced with overflow-wrap: break-word; which works in every modern browser. IE, being a dead browser, will forever rely on the deprecated and non-standard word-wrap instead.

Existing uses of word-wrap today still work as it is an alias for overflow-wrap per the specification.

Line break in HTML with '\n'

This is to show new line and return carriage in HTML, then you don't need to do it explicitly. You can do it in CSS by setting the white-space attribute pre-line value.

<span style="white-space: pre-line">@Model.CommentText</span>

Css force new line in between text in content

You need to add white-space: pre; to your class.

h1:after {
    content: 'Hello\AWorld';
    white-space:pre;
}

CSS: Force float to do a whole new line

Well, if you really need to use float declarations, you have two options:

1. Use clear: left on the leftmost items - the con is that you'll have a fixed number of columns
2. Make the items equal in height - either by script or by hard-coding the height in the CSS

Both of these are limiting, because they work around how floats work. However, you may consider using display: inline-block instead of float, which will achieve the similar layout. You can then adjust their alignment using vertical-align.

Whats the CSS to make something go to the next line in the page?

There are two options that I can think of, but without more details, I can't be sure which is the better:

#elementId {
    display: block;
}

This will force the element to a 'new line' if it's not on the same line as a floated element.

#elementId {
     clear: both;
}

This will force the element to clear the floats, and move to a 'new line.'

In the case of the element being on the same line as another that has position of fixed or absolute nothing will, so far as I know, force a 'new line,' as those elements are removed from the document's normal flow.

How to insert a line break before an element using CSS

It's possible using the \A escape sequence in the psuedo-element generated content. Read more in the CSS2 spec.

#restart:before { content: '\A'; }

You may also need to add white-space:pre; to #restart.

note: \A denotes the end of a line.

p.s. Another treatment to be

:before { content: ' '; display: block; }
