/* Answer to: "css padding vs margin" */

/*
  Margin is outer space of an element, while padding is inner space
  of an element. Margin is the space outside the border of an
  element, while padding is the space inside the border of it.
  Margin accepts the value of auto: margin: auto , but you can't
  set padding to auto.

margin vs padding

Comment

Margin is on the outside of block elements, padding is on the inside.

Use margin to separate the block from things outside it
Use padding to move the contents away from the edges of the block.

Main differences:
- Vertical margins of adjacent items will overlap, padding will not
- Padding is included in the click region and background color/image,
but not the margin
