How to use the CSS box model for spacing, borders, and
backgrounds
When you use cascading style sheets (CSS) to format
your web pages, the CSS box model lets you control the
spacing of elements like headings, text, images, and
so on. It also lets you add borders or backgrounds to
elements as needed.
So this chapter shows
you how to use the box model to create
effective web pages, with easy-to-read text. That includes coverage of the CSS3 features that let you round off the corners of borders, add shadows to borders, and provide gradients as backgrounds...without using the images that were required to produce those effects before CSS3.
