How to write Margin CSS style for html div, span, p, table

CSS margin property indicates the space around an HTML element. We can use negative values to overlap content, means margin can be less than zero

How to define Margin in CSS

<style>
.div{
 margin-top:10px;
margin-top:5px;
margin-left:4px;
margin-right:6px;
}
</style>

Any margin property can have the following values:

• % - indicate margin in % of the width of container
• length - specifies a fix margin in px, pt, cm, etc.

Margin can be set for each side as shown in above example, but if you don’t specify any side then margin will be applied to all the side like below example

<style>
.div{
margin:10px;
}
</style>

Above style indicates 10px margin for each side of div

<div style="width:50%;margin: 0 auto;">
</div>
