1And after saving all those characters, you could splash out and use `black` instead of `#000`!

Indeed, go on and splurge! You deserve it!

No. Margin/padding doesn't have to suffer from color/style. Consider GZIP if those extra bytes really cares you.

@kc rajput : You have shorthand for border-width, which is what difers: `border-width: 0px 1px 1px 1px;` or even `border-width: 0px 1px 1px;` - see http://www.htmldog.com/reference/cssproperties/border-width/ . But no, there is no shorthand for defining what you want with a single line... it would be a huge and confusing line.

@ANeves: `border-width` does essentially the same as `border` without color/style. `border: 0px 1px 1px`. You saves 6 characters! Oh, even more if you use `0` instead of `0px`. It's all doable.
