Hello, I'm new to this thread! I've recently created a website of my own (haven't published it yet due to not being finished)... my question is, since I've been hearing a lot about the <div> tag... WHAT ON EARTH IS DIV? A full thorough explanation would be appreciated


Thank You.The <div> tag is used to create a literal divion of the page. I can contain whatever you want, and is used for a distinction between certain aspects of the page. A perfect example of how <div> tags are used can be found at my web-developing page...
<!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.scriptingsolutions.tk">www.scriptingsolutions.tk</a><!-- w --> here, you will see that there are bodies of text placed everywhere. I used each body of text in a separate <div> tag and then positioned them... If you have any more questions i will be glad to help, and i hope this helps.Is there a div tutorial?the <div> is just an element, like a <span> or a <p> or any other html tag. When you say a div tutorial... do you mean a tutorial on how to use divs for layout instead of tables?

go here for basic info. Positioning is under css advanced.

Although I'm afraid I won't be able to do much with DIV tags, since I already have tables... I'll take a look at it. I'm one of those neurotically organized people. I have to have everything perfect. I'll definitely look at the div. Thanks
