Padding
properties in CSS





In CSS, the padding properties enable
you to select how much white space is added between the elements
border and content. Negative values are not applicable. All the sides
of the padding dimensions including top, right, left, and bottom can
be selected and controlled using separate properties. Like with
margins and borders, you may also control multiple sides
simultaneously.


Padding
- Sets the size of the padding between the inside of an element's
border (if any) and the element itself. The padding for each side
may be set individually using padding-top,
padding-right,
padding-bottom,
and padding-left.
