Calculations in your head

This example requires some calculations. The sum of the widths yields 98%. The distance from 

P.aside {color: gray; border-style: solid;}
Figure 6-6

Figure 6-6. Border colors are taken from the content's color

This will result in the element <PCLASS="aside"> having gray text and a graymedium-width solid border. That's because the foreground coloris applied to the borders by default. The basic way to override thatis with the propertyborder-color:

Figure 6-7. Overriding the default border color

the border of body to the first box plus its width plu the distance yields the left position of the next box.

If you want boxes of different width you need to adjust these values accordingly.

Use of this code is encouraged!

Try it with 2 or 3 columns



middleright

#middleright {
position: absolute;
left: 51%;
width: 28%;
top: 106px;
background-color: #ffffff;
}

box border

Borders, pading and margin are defined in

#right,#middleright,#middleleft,#left{
border: 1px solid #564b47;
padding:0px;
margin:0px;
}

Font definitions

Padding are passed to p, h1 and h3.

p,h1, h3, pre {
padding: 5px 15px;
margin: 0px;
}


As of this writing, only Internet Explorer 4.5 and 5 for the Macintosh and Opera 3.6 will center elements using auto margins.

The other possibility is when one of the margins and the width are set to be auto. In this case, then the margin set to be auto is reduced to zero: 

P {width: auto; margin-left: auto; margin-right: 100px;}
being half-full of nothing. You can only discuss the depth of aglass's contents if it has actual contents. In the same way,talking about the width of a border only makes sense in the contextof borders that have some existence.

This is important to bear in mind because a common mistake is toforget to declare a border style. This leads to all kinds of authorfrustration because at first glance, the styles appear correct. Theresult, though, is a paragraph with no border:

rule first appeared in CSS2, to correct its omission in CSS1.

Subject to the restrictions introduced by the previous seven rules, of course. Historically, browsers aligned the top of a floated element with the top of the line box after the one in which the image's tag appears. Rule 8, however, implies that its top
