CSS Default Values

CSS Default Values

Browsers assign default values to all CSS properties. It's important to know these defaults.

Common Default Values

• display: block (for div, p, h1, etc.) or inline (for span, a, img, etc.)
• position: static
• background-color: transparent
• color: black (usually)
• font-size: 16px (usually)
• margin: 0 (often reset by browser stylesheets)
• padding: 0

/* Resetting default margins */
body {
  margin: 0;
}
