CSS: margin-right and absolute positioning -


i have single div in page. now, when specify position absolute , give margin-left == 20px:

i understand that. div element should shift right 20 px thee exists margin 0f 20px between div , body.

now when provide margin of 20px right side, shouldn't whole div move towards right side gap of 20px body.

http://jsfiddle.net/2jfpj/

.container{ position: absolute; background-color:gray; margin-right: 50px;  height: 200px; }

i know can position div giving values of left , right. real question margin left works margin-right doesnt! why so? appreciated!

its not margin-right looking right

please see fiddle update: jsfiddle right

and if want sit @ bottom of screen add bottom

try updated fiddle: jsfiddle bottom

margin-right not work because add margin div area itself, while right position value.

if @ box model shows margin added to. margin used give box space other objects around itself.
