CSS Visibility Hide

🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)

display: none; hides an element and removes it from the document flow (no space taken), while visibility: hidden; hides it but still reserves its space. [S1]

🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)

• display: none; removes from flow — the element is completely hidden from the document flow and does not take up any space. [S1]
• Common JS toggle use — display: none; is commonly used with JavaScript to hide or show elements without deleting and recreating them. [S1]
• Hide-as-if-absent — hiding an element with display: none; makes the page display as if the element is not there. [S1]
• visibility: hidden; reserves space — the element will be hidden, but it will still take up the same space as if it was visible. [S1]

🧩 추출된 패턴 (Extracted patterns)

• Toggle pattern — start with display: none; in CSS, then flip to block (or back) via JavaScript to show/hide a panel. [S1]
• Choice of hiding mechanism — pick display: none; to collapse layout, or visibility: hidden; to keep the reserved space. [S1]

📖 세부 내용 (Details)

CSS display: none; When using display: none; the element is completely hidden from the document flow and does not take up any space. It is commonly used with JavaScript to hide or show elements without deleting and recreating them. [S1]

Show a hidden element with JavaScript: [S1]

#panel {
  display: none;
}

function myFunction() {
  document.getElementById("panel").style.display = "block";
}

Toggle show/hide with JavaScript: [S1]

#panel {
  display: none;
}

function myFunction() {
  var x = document.getElementById("panel");
  if (x.style.display === "none") {
    x.style.display = "block";
  } else {
    x.style.display = "none";
  }
}

Hide an Element — display:none or visibility:hidden? Hiding an element can be done by setting the display property to none. The element will be hidden, and the page will be displayed as if the element is not there: [S1]

h1.hidden {
  display: none;
}

You can also use visibility:hidden; to hide an element. However, with this property, the element will be hidden, but it will still take up the same space as if it was visible: [S1]

h1.hidden {
  visibility: hidden;
}

⚖️ 비교 및 선택 기준 (Comparison & decision criteria)

• display: none; — the element is hidden and the page is displayed as if the element is not there (it takes up no space). Choose this to collapse the layout around the hidden element. [S1]
• visibility: hidden; — the element is hidden but still takes up the same space as if it was visible. Choose this to keep the surrounding layout unchanged. [S1]
