Name

RIGHTMARGIN — NN n/a IE 4 HTML n/a

Synopsis

RIGHTMARGIN=”integer"

Optional

Establishes the amount of blank space between the right edge of the content area of a window and the right edge of the content. This attribute offers somewhat of a shortcut to setting the margin-right style sheet attribute for the BODY element. As the outermost parent container in the element hierarchy, this attribute setting fixes the right margin context for all nested elements in the document. Be aware that IE on the Mac does not let content come as close to the right edge of the window as the Windows version.

Example

<BODY RIGHTMARGIN="25">... </BODY>

Value

A string value of the number of pixels of clear space at the right margin of the document. A value of an empty string is the same as zero.

Default

10 (Windows); 0 (Macintosh).
