How are you defining an div?
If you use is as an id i.e. div id= then this will cause the problem you are
having. Instead try decalring your div as a class i.e. div class=
Someone else might have a proper answer for this but in my stylesheets I
always have id's preceeded by # as in #divname and classes with a period as
in .divname
Hope this helps
