Multilevel Nav using Div

dmanghani · October 17, 2022, 8:26am

I have made this using Div only no ul or li, it is working but I need some clarifications. As i understand tne number of div = /div, in my
div class=“second” i have 2 div and 4 /div. If i remove even one /div the nav does not work as required.
