Text within a Div Crawlable?

[IBMEMM]

Hi,

I have a paragraph of text contained within a Div container (

)..  Is this readable by a search engine spider.  Or is it better to enclose it within

?

Thanks for any feedback.

within the div is fine. the search engine spider will see it.

These are all crawlable:

• HTML (and all variants)
• .css
• .php

Google still may have issues with:

• some .asp
• Java Script
• They are pretty good about JQury (Our stuff gets indexed)
• Flash.. everyone except for clients' hate flash lol

Every website created after, I dunno, let's say 2000 uses divs. View source on any page on the internet and ctrl+f for it. Divs are how you separate blocks of content so they can be arranged and styled. The spiders would be pretty bored if they skipped over all the pages with divs.
