CSS Padding Properties
The CSS padding properties define the space between the
element border and the element content. Negative values are not
allowed. The top, right, bottom, and left padding can be changed
independently using separate properties. A shorthand padding
property is also created to control multiple sides at once.
Browser support: IE: Internet Explorer, F: Firefox, N:
Netscape.
W3C: The number in the "W3C" column indicates in which
CSS recommendation the property is defined (CSS1 or CSS2).
