Hi, I am bit confused on the proper way to use <section> tags
in the HTML, even after reading about them. Should they be used
inside a <div> tag? replace the <div> tag? or what is a good practice
to use them?
<div>
<section></section>
</div>
Most times, div can be replaced by something else and divs are used when you want to apply a specific style.
I found this great infographic which might help: http://html5doctor.com/downloads/h5d-sectioning-flowchart.png
There is no need to put them in a div.
They can replace a div, but only when it is semantically correct. They are not an all-purpose generic container like div, they have a specific meaning.
