    <h1>Thinking Inside the Box</h1>
    <p class="description">When you are styling a web page with CSS page you
    must start to think in terms of <b>boxes</b>.</p>
  
    <p>Each element is treated as if it generates a new box. Each box can have
    new rules associated with it.</p>

    <p>As you can see from the diagram above, each box has a <b>border</b>.
    Between the content and the border you can have <b>padding</b>, and
    outside of the border you can have a <b>margin</b> to separate this box
    from any neighboring boxes.</p>
