• Content: This is where the actual content of the box, such as images, text, or media, is placed. The height and width properties can be used to adjust the dimensions of the box.
  • Padding: The padding area surrounds the content and creates space between the content and the border. It can be applied to all sides of the box or specific sides like top, right, bottom, and left.
  • Border: The border area surrounds the padding and the content. It can be used on any side of the box or on particular sides. The border helps to define the visual boundary of the box.
  • Margin: The margin area is the space between the border and the outside of the box. It does not have its own background color and is transparent. The margin displays the element's background color, similar to the body element.
