OUtlook mail, and any other mail utility, is not a browser.

They do not necessarily render all HTML, and more so, CSS.

That being said, you also need to check browser settings to make sure the email was marked as HTML vs RTF vs plaintext.

All that being said, setting the style of the hr element to border=0 does not actually guarantee that it will make it go away. It has default properties.[^] You really should just delete it if you don't want it - which is the most sensible way, is it not?

Thank you for the response.
However i have to use that tag,so my line(statement) should not go into next line.Hence I am using hr tag here,and to remove the horizontal line it is not getting success here,apparently working fine in Chrome and IE.

There are other ways in HTML to make a space:
Margins, for one, and <br> for another

Actually, no samples beyond what you got in the previous email: <br>. You need to dig in and figure it out - and thus learn from this.
