DIV tag for general alignments

The <DIV> tag is primarily used to create "divisions" within an HTML document which require the same alignment attribute. As a result, the <CENTER> tag is being phased out.

Like the paragraph <P> tag, the attributes are:

ALIGN = "left" | "center" | "right" | "justify"

ALIGN controls the alignment of objects between the opening <DIV> and closing </DIV> tags.

Left and right alignment flush the objects with the left and right margins, respectively.
Center alignment centers the objects.
Justify should left and right justify any text.

Example of DIV and how to use it to center objects

<DIV ALIGN="center">
Here is some centered text.....<BR> 
Madam Im Adam.<BR>
To get a bit more fancy...<BR>
<TABLE BORDER> 
<TR> <TD> here is a single-celled table! </TD> </TR> 
</TABLE>
</DIV>

which is displayed as:

Here is some centered text, and we're not using the CENTER tag.....
Madam Im Adam.
To get a bit more fancy...

here is the same single-celled table!
