Values

show
The element generates boxes as normal, per its display-* properties.
discard
The element generates no boxes at all.
hide
The element generates boxes as normal, but those boxes do not participate in layout in any way, and must not be displayed.
For the purpose of any layout-related information, such as querying for the computed value of the element's width property, it must be treated as if it did not generate any boxes.
Properties that rely on boxes but do not rely on layout, such as animations, counter-increment, etc., must work as normal on this element and its descendants.
