I didn’t actually realise you’d already done this. Though I don’t think I stole it from you….

Thanks ST Verschoof, im glad you agree. I mean really it’s up to the coder, but like I pointed out, CSS already knows to use the default value of 0 if no other margin/padding other then left is stated so why keep redefining values it already knows? Just trying to save y’all time with shorthand! Thanks for commenting.

I Totally agree on you what you say about not writing: margin: 0px 0px 0px 30px; It’s just longer than margin-left: 30px; and it’s not totally clear while margin-left can only implicate on the left margin! So Thank you for the enlightment on margin and padding shorthands!
