HTML p, span, div and other tags explained

Having an understanding of the difference between <p>, <div>, <span> and other HTML tags makes working with our HTML VizCreator visuals for Power BI much easier.

We prefer to use the div and span tags which offer us the full flexibility as they contain little to no predefined format so we are the ones in control over how they are formatted.
