Difference between inline and block elements in CSS
In CSS, the main difference between inline and block elements lies in how they are displayed on a web page:
- Inline elements: Inline elements do not start on a new line and only occupy the space bounded by their content. Examples include
span
,a
, andimg
. - Block elements: Block elements always start on a new line and take up the full width available. They also respect top and bottom margins. Examples include
div
,p
, andh1
.
If you want elements to stack vertically, use block elements; if you want elements to flow horizontally, use inline elements.
Understanding the difference between inline and block elements is crucial for creating well-structured and visually appealing websites.
