Topic awaiting preservation: margins using css (Page 1 of 1)

How do I make the top and left margin be 0 using css. I should know this but damn if it didn't slip my mind. Heh.

adaline:

margin-top: 0px;
margin-left: 0px;

It's just as easy as you thought :

<style ...>

     body { margin: 0px; }

</style>

//edit: Aargh, Emps, I can't believe you were 2 seconds faster than me again!

<style type="text/css">
body {margin: 0 0 0 0;}
</style>

That defines top, right, bottom, left IN THAT ORDER, in pixels. You could do less than four numbers, and the missing one gets the value from the opposite side. So margin: 0 3 would give you top and bottom of 0 and left and right of 3. Using margin: 0 would give you 0 all around.

You can use this same method for other items in CSS as well, like borders.

Hope this helps.
