I am wanting to display a page with no content that just visually displays the basic structure of a html page using semantic tags without actually putting in any text content (yet).
The effect I’m looking for is a page that looks like this:
Here is the html that I have written so far:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Document</title>
<style>
#wrapper {
width: 500px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
header {
background-color: green;
width: 100%;
}
nav {
background-color: aqua;
width: 100%;
}
main {
background-color: lightblue;
width: 100%;
}
footer {
background-color: bisque;
width: 100%;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<header>
</header>
<nav>
</nav>
<main>
</main>
<footer>
</footer>
</div>
</body>
</html>
My problem is that it doesn’t display anything at all, until I put some kind of text into each of the semantic tags (even if it’s a ).
Is there a way to style the tags, such that they will show the full box for each of the semantic elements , , and across the width of the page without having to add some text into each of them?
Thanks heaps 🙂
