I'm confused as to when you'd use the WebControls.Panel instead of the DIV
tag as they appear to offer similar facilities on the surface.

Thanks, Rob.
 
They do offere similar facilities on the surface, but beneath the surface
one provides a rich OO programming interface which allows you to
programmatically set and control a high number of properties and levarage
much functioanlity, while the other one does not.

A DIV tag is static HTML. A Panel is a dynamic Control that you can control
from the server.
