Create a hidden div not taking any space in HTML

In this tutorial, we are going to learn about how to create a hidden div that doesn’t take up any space in html with the help of examples.

Consider, we have a following html element:

<div> This is main heading</div>

Now, we need to hide the above div and it doesn’t take up any space in the webpage.

Using display:none

To create a hidden div by not taking any space, we can use the css display: none property in HTML.

Here is an example :

<div style="display:none"> This is main heading</div>

When set a display: none to the html element it removes the element completely from the webpage and doesn’t take up any space.

You can also add the styles separately using class attribute:

<div class="box"> This is main heading</div>

.box {
   display:none;
}

Note: If we use visibility: hidden to hide a div, it hides the div but creates an empty space in the webpage.
