div

Army unit, abbr.

A div is a container element in HTML and web development, short for "division." It groups content together for styling or layout purposes: Wrap that section in a div.

Divs have no inherent meaning—they're generic boxes that hold other elements.

In British slang, a div is a stupid person: Don't be such a div.
