CSS display
Created By: chatGPT
In CSS, the
display
property is used to define how an element is rendered on the page. The most common values for this property include block
, inline
, inline-block
, and none
. Each of these values affects the layout of elements differently.Block elements take up the full width available, with a new line before and after the element. Common block elements include
<div>
, <h1>
, <p>
, etc. For example:div {
display: block;
}
Inline elements, on the other hand, only take up as much width as necessary and do not break the flow of the document. Common inline elements include
<span>
, <a>
, and <strong>
. Example:span {
display: inline;
}
Inline-block combines features of both block and inline elements. It allows you to set width and height while still flowing with text. Here’s how you can use it:
button {
display: inline-block;
width: 100px;
height: 50px;
}
To hide elements, you can use
Using the display: none;
. This will remove the element from the flow of the document entirely, making it as if it were not there. Example:.hidden {
display: none;
}
display
property effectively is crucial for layout design. Understanding how each value affects positioning will significantly help in creating responsive and organized layouts.
