CSS Question

Ashley · 02-13-2006, 07:48 AM

I wondered whether there was a CSS rule to make a div tag a certain amount higher than the content within it and if so what is the rule?

Thanks in advance

I've wondered this too before but couldn’t you just add padding or margins?

<div id="content">
Content goes here!
</div>

content{
width: 100%;
margin: 30px;
padding: 30px;
}

p.s. Welcome back, a lot has happend since youve been away!

I guess that would work, I always make weird solutions that end up not working

I've purely learn't through trial and error
