To an amateur Ottawa web designer, margins and padding can be puzzling. They do tend to appear the same in some ways: White space around and image or object.

The actual image or cell content and the area inside and between the borders are what are known as padding. The yellow area surrounding the contents in an image is the padding is also the padding. The padding completely surrounds the contents: to the top, bottom, left and right sides.

The area outside of the border, between the border and the other elements beside the object are known as the margins. The red area outside and entire object in an image is also the margin. Like padding, the margin also surrounds the entire content: to the top, bottom, left and right sides.

If you are thinking about doing extremely creative things with margins and padding, be mindful that the box model is not accurately implemented in internet explorer. Meaning that your page will look unusual, more so in other browsers.
