It defines a container for content that you want to be treated as a single
unit (perhaps with descendant elements). <SPAN> does the same thing but for
in-line content. <DIV> is analogous to <P>, while <SPAN> is analogous to
<EM>. IMO, the <DIV> and <SPAN> tags (with class="..." attributes) are
useful primarily in styling (all right, in transforming) a document and not
at all otherwise.

(I don't have my XSL stuff here at work (gad, what an awful commentary that
is...), so I can't off the top of my head answer your question about
selecting attribute values, but I know it can be done easily.)
