A diagram displaying equal margins of width 25mm on an A4 page. In typography, a margin is the area between the main content of a page and the page edges. The margin helps to define where a line of text begins and ends. When a page is justified the text is spread out to be flush with the left and right margins.
margin and padding are the two most commonly used properties for spacing-out elements. A margin is the space outside something, whereas padding is the space inside something. Change the CSS code for h2 to the following: h2 { font-size: 1.5em; background-color: #ccc; margin: 20px; padding: 40px; }. This leaves a 20-pixel width space around the secondary header and the header itself is fat from the 40-pixel width padding. The four sides of an element can also be set individually.
