Challenge: Predict the Page Layout

Task

Examine the provided HTML code and predict how the page will look in the browser. There are three <div> elements, each containing a combination of an inline and block-level element.

Questions to Consider:

1. How will the inline and block-level elements interact within each <div>?
2. How will the order of elements affect the layout?
3. What will be the visual hierarchy of inline and block-level elements within each <div>?

1. How will the inline and block-level elements interact within each <div>?
   • In the first and second <div>, the <span> element (inline) appears before the text (block-level);
   • In the third <div>, the <span> element is in the middle of the text (block-level).
2. How will the order of elements affect the layout?
   • In the first <div>, the text "This is a block-level element." will likely appear below the inline element due to the default block-level behavior of the <div> container;
   • In the second <div>, the order of elements is reversed, so the text will likely appear above the inline element;
   • In the third <div>, the text and inline element are interspersed, so the layout might show the text and inline element in the sequence.
3. What will be the visual hierarchy of inline and block-level elements within each <div>?
   • The inline element (<span>) is likely to appear inline with the text in all cases, but its position might vary based on the order of elements within the <div>.
