Control MediaWiki generated html

I would like to control the html generated by the application. In other words: When an user saves an article the html article generated would have some aditional html tags. For example the first section of the article would be within a div, with a specific ID. BUt this shouldn't change the text when editing the article, only the "article view" panel would have that div. Was I clear enough?

Is there any extension that can help me? If no, should I develop my own extension? If so can you give some advises about the flow? I never develop an extension, and any highlights and insights you can give would probably save lots of research time.

Thanks in advance

The article already has its own individual div when created. It is how the div#header, MediaWiki:(anon|site)notice, MediaWiki:Sidebar, and the div#content are separated.. I would first suggest try using your browser's View Source feature on a few parsed pages to see what the output looks like. div#content can be used in your skins or css to make adjustments to it accordingly.. I hope this helps, or prompts you for move information appropriately. :D
