Fix for DreamWeaver & jQuery Mobile If you started with an HTML5 type you may need to add this line of code in your <head> tags. <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<div> <h1>My page heading will go here</h1><p>My paragraph text goes in this area</p> </div> My page heading will go here <div attributeSample=”AttributeGoesHere”> <h1>My page heading will go here</h1><p>My paragraph text goes in this area</p> </div> My page heading will go here <h1>My page heading will go here</h1> This allows you to define different elements about the <div> or any other tag that may have an attribute. HTML - Hype Text Markup Language <p>My paragraph text goes in this area</p> My paragraph text goes in this area My paragraph text goes in this area A <div> is a invisible bounding area Keep in mind that HTML is a mark up language so you write your text and mark it up with different tags.
