Using Shorthand Properties in CSS

Using Shorthand Properties in CSS

CSS supports shorthand properties for margin, border properties, etc.

For example:

margin-top: 1.5em; margin-right: 1em; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: 1em;

could be written in shorthand format as

margin: 1.5em 1em 1.5em 1em;
