Is there a way to make a div a link? I have some information in a div and i dont want then to have to click the image next to the text to have to go to the content so i would like the entire div to be a link.

The link given does provide an option to allow a div to be clickable using JavaScript handlers.

But if you want to do it for simplicity sakes, then just wrap the div in particular in the <a> tag and I believe you'll have what you're wanting to accomplish.

wrapping the div in the <a> messes it up do this,

#div a:link, a:visited {
	  backgroundimage: blah;
	  font_decoration: none;
}
#div a:hover, a:active {
	  backgroundimage: blah;
	  font-decoration: underline;
}

You can replace the code with whatever you want but this will make your div clickable as a link. The html should look like this:

<div id="div">
	  <a href="b"> I like to go to the park </a>
</div>

Well it should. It is invalid HTML to wrap a block level element in an inline element. What you have to do is set the <a> tag to display:block; (along with maybe a few other formatting corrections, depending on the circumstances), and that will fix the problem (but still won't make it validate).
