Div Tag In HTML

In this article, we will discuss the div tag in HTML.

Purpose

Div is the part of the HTML document.

Syntax

<div>
      Contents 
</div>

Example

<html>
<head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
</head>
<body>
    <div style="border:1px solid black;height:25%">
        Test1
    </div>
    <div style="border:1px solid black;height:25%">
        Test2
    </div>
    <div style="border:1px solid black;height:25%">
        Test3
    </div>
    <div style="border:1px solid black;height:25%">
        Test4
    </div>
</body>
</html>

Try It

In the above code, I am dividing the vertical space of the HTML document into four parts. For that, I am declaring 4 div tags and assigning 25% height to each div.

In the same way, you can also divide the horizontal space of the HTML document. Instead of height, just mention width.
