The <div> tag is nothing more than a container for other tags. Much like the body tag, Div elements are block elements and work behind the scenes grouping other tags together. Use only the following attributes with your div element, anything else should be reserved for CSS. (CSS Tutorial)
· id
· width
· height
· title
· style
For the purpose of this example, we have included the style attribute in order to color our div tag in order to bring a stronger visualization for our viewers.
Example:
<body>
<div style=”background: green”>
<h5 >SEARCH LINKS</h5>
<a target=”_blank” href=”http://www.google.com”>Google</a>
</div>
</body>
HTML Div Element:
SEARCH LINKS
Above is a great visual about how a div plays the role of a container for other HTML elements, applying a background color/image is the only real way to visualize your div tags.
