HTML/CSS

[Guest]

I have a question that i personally need to answer, only i'm not sure on how to answer it... The question is, how does the CSS Box Model apply to each block-elements and inline-elements?

 

Any help is appreciated.

Yeah i've checked that out but can't actually find anything on how it relates differently to block and in-line elements

Here are a few points, maybe it helps to point out the difference:

• Block elements can contain inline elements and other block elements
• Inline elements can only contain data or other inline elements
• Block elements build larger structures than inline elments
• Block elements start in a new line, inline elements do not
