The width and height properties in CSS

We can define the height and width exclusively for the element’s content, though these properties do not include margins, paddings or borders.

Syntax

The syntax of CSS height property is as follows −

Selector {
   height: /*value*/
}

The syntax of CSS width property is as follows −

Selector {
   width: /*value*/
}

Let us see an example of width and height properties −

Example

 Live Demo

<html>
<head>
<title>CSS height and width</title>

}
button {
   border-radius: 10px;
}
#containerDiv {
   width:70%;
   margin: 0 auto;
   padding:20px;
   background-image: linear-gradient(62deg, #fbab7e 0%, #f7ce68 100%);
   text-align: center;
   border-radius: 10px;
}
#contentDiv2{
   width:200px;
   height: 200px;
   opacity: .5;
   border:1px solid black;
}
