But there's more…
Here's another common way to abbreviate margins (or padding):
top and b ottom
are the sa me.
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: 20px;
margin-bottom: 0px;
margin-left: 20px;
margin: 0px 20px;
And what about the border properties we mentioned?
You can use a shorthand for those too.
Rewr ite bo rder
prop erties as one
prop erty. T hese can be
in an y orde r you like.
border-width: thin;
border-style: solid;
border-color: #007e7e;
border: thin solid #007e7e;
The border shorthand is even more flexible than margins or padding
because you can specify them in any order you like.
The se are all per fectly
vali d bord er sho rthand s.
border: solid thin;
border: solid thin #007e7e;
border: #007e7e solid;
border: #007e7e solid thin;
border: solid;
…and don't forget the shorthand for backgrounds
You can also use shorthand for backgrounds:
Like border , value s can g o in a ny ord er
in thi s short hand. There are a lso a
few o ther v alues y ou can specif y in t he
background-color: white;
background-image: url(images/cocktail.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
short hand, like ba ckgrou nd-pos ition.
background: white url(images/cocktail.gif) repeat-x;
