tell me about div tag?

Question

its purpose,its attributes,

Answer 1

it's used to create different sections/areas on a webpage. classes and ids can be applied. In html5 it is replaced by the article tag.

Answer 2

It has a default { display: block } CSS rule. If placed inside a p tag you might have issues with browser compatibility. I suggest never to use div tags inside elements having as default style inline display.

Answer 3

thanks...

Answer 4

It is not replaced. If you content has semantic use an article/section tag. If you need a tag just for styling then use a div.
