I'd like some feedback on this. I'm teaching a class on web design to students who've had various
levels of training. I'm seeing a number of students mark up their XHTML with descriptively named
DIVs that have no counterpart in the CSS. Is this some kind of XML holdover or what? Am I missing
some coding practice or method for why this is being done? I don't recommend this because (1) it
clogs up the HTML with useless stuff, and (2) there's potential to break the page if a DIV isn't
closed. If this is an attempt to section/categorize the code, simple HTML comments will serve the
purpose much better.
Any thoughts?
-Tim
