               Separator
               A separator is another really easy block that can provide visual separation
               between items of information.  I’ve inserted one between the column block and
               the table block below.


















               You try it out and do the same.  Isn’t that easy?   You’re getting plenty of block
               practice in this section but there are a few more to go yet.



               Buttons
               The button block is very useful and can be used for a variety of things.  You used
               it earlier to create links.  A button is a call for action; to do something.  It is
               therefore useful if you want your visitor to click on it to get more information or
               go to a document for instance.  It could be used to divert the visitor to an
               external website as you saw earlier.  One of the things that my less-IT literate
               members struggle with is clicking on something but then not being able to
               remember how to get back to where they were.  Yes, I know they could use the
               ‘back’ button but an old memory can’t always remember this.  Adding a button at
               the end of a page to return to a main page would be most helpful to members
               like this and that is what I have done below.  You need a live server-hosted site to
               see this in action as you need to link the button to the required page via a URL
               and as this is a simulation, we can’t do that.




















               What could you use a button for?  Create one now and position it below the
               table you created.
