Understanding margin in CSS_html/css_WEB-ITnose

The order of setting borders in margin is top right, bottom left

{margin：top right buttom right}

which is equivalent to the separate settings

{  margin-top: 20px;  margin-right: 30px;  margin-bottom: 30px;  margin-left: 20px;  }

If 3 values ​​are specified for the margin, the fourth value (i.e. the left margin) will be changed from The second value (right margin) is copied. If two values ​​are given, the 4th value will be copied from the 2nd value, and the 3rd value (bottom margin) will be copied from the 1st value (top margin). In the last case, if only one value is given, then the other three margins are copied from this value (top margin).

 var modalMarginTop = ($('#' + modalID).height() + 80) / 2;        var modalMarginLeft = ($('#' + modalID).width() + 80) / 2;        /* apply the margins to the modal window */        $('#' + modalID).css({            'margin-top' : -modalMarginTop,            'margin-left' : -modalMarginLeft        });
