Jrnr601 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) While refreshing my knowledge about CSS I noticed the CSS box model is explained in the following order: Borders Margins Padding Height/width Box model Outline First all components of the box model are explained in depth and afterwards a general overview is given (5: box-model). For me as a reader this was confusing, since I didn't get the main concept until reading the "box-model" page and actually had to go back and reread the margins/padding section to thoroughly understand the system. I therefore suggest changing the explanation order to: Box model Height/width Padding Borders Margins Outline For me personally this would make more sense, since first the general concept of the box model is given, and afterwards all individual concepts are explained in depth (going from the inside to the outside of the css box). Any opinions about this? Edited September 30, 2017 by Jrnr601 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankieGTH Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 I think the existing order is the right order, because to understand the box model you first have to understand border, padding, and height & width. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
