CSS padding-bottom

The CSS padding-bottom property is used to apply padding to the bottom side of an element.

Also see the padding, padding-right, padding-top and padding-left properties.

Syntax

Possible Values

length
Allows you to specify a non-negative length value as the padding thickness. Negative values are invalid.
percentage
Allows you to specify a non-negative percentage value as the padding thickness. Negative values are invalid.

In addition, all CSS properties also accept the following CSS-wide keyword values as the sole component of their property value:

initial
Represents the value specified as the property's initial value.
inherit
Represents the computed value of the property on the element's parent.
unset
This value acts as either inherit or initial, depending on whether the property is inherited or not. In other words, it sets all properties to their parent value if they are inheritable or to their initial value if not inheritable.
