CSS Recommendation margin and padding

Question

I had the question http://www.question2answer.org/qa/2111/

How to get rid of the space between title and question on question site ?

I think it is resolved now by adding a universal application of margin/padding 0.

* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}

should be added after the body {}  in  the css file.

My problem with IE 7 is resolved now and I post it here so others may test it a well while designing their sites.

Answer 1

if you use margin it gives a difference between both you can add margin in both conditions

for example:

you can add margin to make difference {margin-left: 20px}

u also add margin to make close two items {margin-left: -20px}

and padding add area in given item not gives space.
