In today's web design class we learned about page layout and how to use <div> tags to create a structure for a simple website. This was very helpful information. Not only was I reminded how to use <div> tags but I also was reminded about using comments in the HTML which don't show up on the web page. I also learned some helpful pointers on how to easily identify the end of each <div> tag with a comment saying 'end of ___ tag'. This will make it far easier to create a website structure in the future.
I also discovered that the split view on Dreamweaver shows a dotted outline of the <div> tags so you can see how they are laid out even when you can't see it in the browser window. The split view doesn't give an accurate view as it 'invents' spaces in-between the <div> tags that aren't really there, so I wouldn't use this much - only for confirmation that I've put all of my <div> tags into the right places.
