What does DIV do ?? 2

Hi. Can anyone explain to me what the <DIV> tag does? Is it anything like <SPAN> ? Thanks

A div is a container that you position somewhere. A span is a container that contains style information like color, font and background-color information.

A div can have style information that a span has but spans are more appropriate inside a paragraph of text.

Here is an example :

<div style=&quot;position:absolute;left:100px;top:10px;&quot;>
This is a <span style=&quot;font-weight:bold;&quot;>paragraph</span> where different styles and <span style=&quot;color:Red;background-color:Teal;&quot;>colors</span> are given using span. The div is the container that positions this <span style=&quot;font-weight:bold;&quot;>paragraph</span>.
</div>
