1,897 PointsShould I use a <ul> <nav> & <div> when setting up a nav bar?
Im pretty sure that the <nav> is semantic markup, but it seems to work just fine w/o a <ul>. Why use a <ul>? How does the <div> help? Do I need all three? I understand them individually, im having trouble seeing why I would use all 3.
