In this MDN article, they compare inline elements to block-level elements?

I notice they did they used inline elements and not inline-level elements.

What is the difference?

CodePudding user response：

Inline elements is a shorter version of inline-level elements. In the same way, block-level elements can also be referred to as block elements. So there is no difference between them and can be used interchangeably.

The following are quotes from W3.org that confirms this:

inline-level: Content that participates in inline layout. Specifically, inline-level boxes and text runs.

inline: Used as a shorthand for inline box or inline-level box where unambiguous, or as an adjective meaning inline-level. The latter usage is deprecated.

Inline level and inline elements are the same, check this link: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Block-level_elements

You will see the link content "block-level elements" if you click it, it will take you to a page named "Inline elements", that's means they are the same.
