I'm new to CSS and I'm trying to figure out the difference between the
Header tags, div, span, and p tags as they relate to style sheets. They
each render slightly different in the browser and accept different styles.
I was wondering if there is any hard and fast rule or if it's just a matter
of playing around and discovering ones preferences.
Thanks,
Jim
