Then here is a crucial attribute to mention, the css display attribute. So some novices may ask, what does display in css mean? How to use css display?

This article will give you a detailed introduction to the specific usage of the css display attribute, hoping to solve your questions. (In order to make it easier for everyone to understand this article, it is recommended to read my article [How are html elements distinguished?] which has a detailed introduction to block-level elements and inline elements)

First, let me list several commonly used values of css display: none, block, inline, inline-block

Next, we will explain the usage of css display attributes in detail through specific code examples.

1. Introduction to specific examples of css display block attributes

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>css display:block属性实例</title>
    <style>
        *{padding: 0;margin:0;list-style: none;}
        ul li{float: left;}
        a{
        display:block; 
        width: 30px;height: 30px;
        color:#fff; 
        background: green;margin: 5px; 
        text-decoration: none;
        text-align: center;
        line-height: 30px;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="demo">
    <ul>
        <li><a href="">1</a></li>
        <li><a href="">2</a></li>
        <li><a href="">3</a></li>
        <li><a href="">4</a></li>
        <li><a href="">5</a></li>

We comment out the display:block; attribute in the a tag, and the effect is as shown in Figure 2:

Then through Figure 1 and Figure Comparing 2, we can find that in Figure 1, because the display:block attribute is set, the element block in a can display the width, height, and inner and outer margin settings. In Figure 2, just the display block attribute is removed, which results in the width and height not being set for all element blocks.

That is to say, the display block attribute can set the inline element to a block-level element, and then set its width, height, top, bottom, left, and right margins, padding, and margin. We can use this attribute to achieve the effect we want.

2. Specific examples of css display none attribute

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>css display:none属性实例</title>
    <style>
        *{padding: 0;margin:0;list-style: none;}
        ul li{float: left;}
        a{
            display: none; width: 30px;height: 30px;color:#fff; background: green;margin: 5px; text-decoration: none;text-align: center;line-height: 30px;}
    </style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="demo">
    <p>a元素不会显示出来</p>
    <ul>
        <li><a href="">1</a></li>
        <li><a href="">2</a></li>
        <li><a href="">3</a></li>
        <li><a href="">4</a></li>
        <li><a href="">5</a></li>
    </ul>
</div>
