The CSS margin properties define the space around elements.
margin: top right bottom left;
The CSS property MARGIN clears the area surrounding an element. The background color of the MARGIN is transparent (no background color, at all).
Values of CSS MARGIN:
 There are three possible values for the margin properties: auto, fixed, percentage.
 1. Auto: The browser determines the margin.
 2. Defines a fixed margin area. This area can be defined in px, pt, em, etc.
