The fact that DW will actually expect (require?) that you understand both 
HTML and CSS to become adept at its use.  This means that you will have to 
be able to use Design view as a confirmatory device, not as a primary layout 
tool.

This is a symptom of relying on Design view.  If you were in code view, 
you'd just select the code, copy and paste.  But try this.  Click in the 
div.  on the Tag selector at the bottom of the document pane, click on the 
right-most <div> tag.  Copy.  Place the insertion point somewhere else in 
Design view.  Paste.  That should work.  Perhaps it already HAS worked and 
you are being confused by the way the page is being rendered once you paste? 
Is this div absolutely positioned, by chance?
