5. What are the differences between <div> and <span> tags?

The <div> and <span> tags are used to group and style content in HTML, but they differ in how they affect the layout of the page.

Differences:

  1. Block vs. Inline: <div> is a block-level element, meaning it takes up the full width available and always starts on a new line. <span> is an inline element, meaning it only takes up as much width as necessary and does not start a new line.
  2. Usage: <div> is used to group larger sections of content, such as paragraphs, images, and other block-level elements. <span> is used to style small portions of text or other inline elements within larger elements.

Example of using <div>:

<div> <h1>Section Title</h1> <p>This is a paragraph inside a div element.</p> </div>

Example of using <span>:

<p>This is <span style="color: red;">red text</span> inside a paragraph.</p>
