Using DIV as a link

I was just wondering, how do you link a DIV? I'm using a DIV with a background as my page header. The thing is that I'd like to use my header as a clickable link to my index.html page. I guess what I'm trying to say that is it possible to link just the background of the DIV, not the whole content?

Code can be found here:

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.kolumbus.fi/knuutila/audor/index.html">http://www.kolumbus.fi/knuutila/audor/index.html</a><!-- m -->

If I'm approaching headers from a wrong direction (standards/semantic wise, please correct me.)

Thanks,

But you probably don't want to do that if there is anything in the DIV that is already linked.Forgive me if im wrong but im i right in thinking that you cant do this legally(valid) <a href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"#"><div></div></a>

Im sure its wrong but im still unsure<a href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"#"><div></div></a>
It's invalid; block element within an inline element is not allowed.Just what i thought fang but thanks for clarifying it.
