So, I'm sitting down to create CSS ... what does the browser need to do first: margins on body ... which of them comes first as you scroll down: the top of the body ... If you came from print publishing, and assume that the browser handles the gutter spacing with defaults then it might even be argued that the right margin should come next! It's just something you have to learn, none of the options seem more logical to me. Note I first wrote HTML using pico on a Sun workstation in ~1995; developing with the developments in web development probably causes one to develop strangely. Or, in other words, it's hard to take a fresh view when you've had to deal with IE5.
