`<DIV ...>`

ALIGN: text alignment

<DIV ...>, a block-level element, simply defines a block of content in the page. Beyond defining a block, <DIV ...> itself doesn't do anything. For example, the following code creates a <DIV ...> element with two paragraphs inside of it. Notice that you can put <P ...> elements inside a <DIV ...>.

This is stuff before the <NOBR><CODE>&#60;DIV ...&#62;</CODE></NOBR>.

<DIV>
This is stuff inside the <NOBR><CODE>&#60;DIV ...&#62;</CODE></NOBR>.

<P>

This is more stuff inside the <NOBR><CODE>&#60;DIV ...&#62;</CODE></NOBR>.
</DIV>

This is stuff after the <NOBR><CODE>&#60;DIV ...&#62;</CODE></NOBR>.

which gives us:

This is stuff before the <DIV ...>.

This is stuff inside the <DIV ...>.

This is more stuff inside the <DIV ...>.

`<P ...>`
