March 15 Online Discussion Question 2

Width

What is it? How do you set it? How you do you calculate width for an entire element? What else should we know about it?

(let each student have a chance to answer!)

  2. If you don't set the width of an element than it will be "auto" which means that it will expand to fit the space available.

  3. The width property specifies width for the content area only.

  6. calculating the width is basically a big math problem, you find what the pixel width of the content you want, then you add your desired border width, and the desired padding width, then you add it all up, making sure to account for the border and padding having to be doubled to account for both sides of the content
