Div is just a block level element like <p> browsers usually place a line break before and after a div element.

Usually? No, always. <div> and <p> tags automatically have display:block; embedded, so they will always have a line break before and after.

As I've mentioned by default div is a block level element without any doubt. But it is possible to convert a block level element like a div element to an inline element using CSS.

In such situation if the user have to examine both CSS and (X)HTML source to find which are acting as full-fledged block level elements and as inline elements.

So in order to avoid such confusion in such situations I've phrased it as "usually".

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
	<head>
		<title> </title>
		<style type="text/css">
		.inlinediv{
			display: inline;
		}
		</style>
		<script type="text/javascript">
		
		</script>
	</head>
	<body>
		<div>Test </div>
		<span>This is a </span><div class="inlinediv">test</div>
	</body>
</html>

In the above case the highlighted <div> element will not have any preceding and succeeding line breaks.
