In JavaScript, we can hide the elements using the style.display or by using the style.visibility. The visibility property in JavaScript is also used to hide an element. The difference between the style.display and style.visibility is when using visibility: hidden, the tag is not visible, but space is allocated. Using display: none, the tag is also not visible, but there is no space allocated on the page.
In HTML, we can use the hidden attribute to hide the specified element. When the hidden attribute in HTML sets to true, the element is hidden, or when the value is false, the element is visible.
Syntax
The general syntax to hide an element using style.hidden and style.visibility is given as follows.
Using style.hidden
document.getElementById("element").style.display = "none"; Using style.visibility
document.getElementById("element").style.visibility = "none"; Hide the Element
