<header> vs. <head>
Do I have to use <div class="header"> as <header> in HTML5? Somebody explained one question like that <header> vs. <head>. I am a bit confused.
Thanks for any help. I appreciate it.

As the linked question explains:
<head>
<title>Your page | Your company</title>
<meta name="keywords" value="blah blah"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css">
<script></script>
</head>
is still the same in HTML5, for storing meta information and linked scripts etc.
Header is a new element for grouping the header of a page or section symantically.
Including James Simm's info:
Technically, the element in HTML5 represents a group of introductory, or navigation aids. It isn't just for a given page or document. can be used within sectioning elements such as or too. See WHATWG for more info
<header>
<h1>Your page heading</h1>
<nav>
<ul><li>Global Nav Item 1</li></ul>
</nav>
</header>
You do not need to use any of the new tags in HTML5. You can use them if you want though.
<header> is a semantic tag to mark the header section of your site while <head> is the are where things like meta tags go.
