Can I make sure an element is blocked?

Hello, this question is not really about acceptable ads, but I don't know where else to put it.
When I put ads in web pages, I normally wrap them in an aside block or similar, to clearly mark them as such (e.g. by writing “ads:”, like here http://right-arrow.net/). Now, for Ad Block users the actual ad will be hidden, while the container will not. Of course it would be nice (for me) if every single visitor saw those ads, but I totally understand why someone is using Ad Block (I often do myself), and rather than having the page look ”broken”, I would prefer to be able to hide the container element all together for Ad Block users. Is there any class name or similar that I can put on an element to make sure that it is always blocked by Ad Blocker?
