No, it was a careless mistake of mine - <div class=""> is the correct
one.

Please get some small object, a key or something and stare at it and
repeat over and over after me: "No one ever wrote "<div.loud>..."

Try not to say anything like "Ah but someone did!"

Which reminds me for the flimsiest of reasons of a nice story about
George Bush (told by Peter Singer in his book The Ethics of George
Bush). The head of the greatest superpower that has ever existed on
earth was recording a radio address which was to be played the following
Sat. He was saying something like "Today, this Sat, ..." but kept
stopping the recording to express his perplexity at saying something so
untrue, It was still Monday you see... he was not happy and could not
stop thinking of the truth that it was not Monday. The point of the
story was to try to show that this president had an arrested moral
development, that his morality consisted (as with children) in simple
rules without the subtleties of context.
