<div> is used with parts of the website, i.e. header, content, image, sidebar, gadget.
<span> is useful for working with fonts.

This is what I know about these two: In defining a division or section in an HTML, you may use DIV and while you use SPAN to group inline-elements in a document.

Both <div> and <span> is used to define parts of a web page. The <span> element shows the inline portion of a document. The <div> elements show a block-level portion of a document.
