11.10 Turning Arbitrary Content into a Styled Element
NN 4, IE 3
11.10.1 Problem
You want to assign a style to a
section of body content that is not currently delimited by HTML tags.
11.10.2 Solution
Wrap the content inside a <span> or
<div> tag pair, and assign a style to that
element type, class, or ID:
<p>And now for something <span class="hot">completely</span> different.</p>
11.10.3 Discussion
Despite the large number of contextual tags provided by HTML 4.0
(such as the <address> and
<blockquote> tags), the tags
don't necessarily have names that describe the true
context within your document. Although you can use XML capabilities
of IE 5 and later for Windows and NN 6 or later to fill this gap (by
designing your own tags), you can also use HTML tags to define these
contexts for you.
The span element is customarily used to wrap
inline content, such as a sequence of text within a paragraph. A
div element automatically defines a
block-level entity, which means that the browser starts a
div element's content on its own
line while any content following the div element
begins on a new line after the div. A
div element is often used when the page needs to
change alignment from, say, left to center. But a
div is also a convenient container for content
that is to be positioned on a page.
