The display property defines how a certain HTML element should be displayed. Display block and none are used to show or hide html elements. You can read more about display property and available options here.

  • none: The element will not be displayed at all.

  • block: The element displayed as a block-level element (like paragraphs and headers)

Display:none; - The element is in the DOM but is NOT visible and does not take up any space unlike visibility:hidden.

Display: block; - A block element takes up the full width available and does not allow other elements to be placed beside them. Example: div

These two style properties do two different things.

display: none removes the element completely from the document. It does not take up any space, even though the HTML for it is still in the source code. (The element will generate no box at all)

display: block the element will span the full width of the space available to it. (a line break before and after the element)
