SPACER introduces arbitrary horizontal or vertical spacing within typed text. SPACER can take several attributes. TYPE, which is mandatory, specifies the type of spacer: TYPE="block" is analogous to a transparent (invisible) image of size HEIGHT and WIDTH, and allows insertion of a horizontal and vertical block. TYPE="horizontal" introduce simple horizontal tab-like spacings withlength specified by SIZE. TYPE="vertical" introduces a vertical tab, again with size specified by SIZE -- however, this tab also causes a line break.
SPACER is only understood by Netscape Navigator 3 and greater. Be careful with SPACER -- documents that depend on SPACER to look good will look very bad when SPACER is not supported.
An example of a spacer is:
<SPACER TYPE="block" WIDTH="40" HEIGHT="44">
