Is it acceptable to use the

tag just to indent information, or is that specifically for quotes or whatnot... Also, is there a better way to indent information? Like on a contact page i want a line - "Traditional Contact" then adress, phone number below it, and indented. I've used blockquote but i dunno if that will work with everything.

Fringey,

Yes that is an acceptable use a good description of the purpose of the

tag is here http://www.htmlcompendium.org/Menu/0framefn.htm If you are only using it only for the indentation you might consider the use of the CSS property of text-indent: if you are unfamiliar with CSS you can get more info on that property here http://www.eskimo.com/%7Ebloo/indexdot/css/properties/text/textindent.htm

Hope This Helped

I didn't know there was a text-indent function, but the link you supplied is broken
