As of Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5, this property applies to inline elements. With earlier versions of Windows Internet Explorer, inline elements must have an absolute IHTMLStyle::position or layout to use this property. Element layout is set by providing a value for the IHTMLStyle::height property or the IHTMLStyle::width property.
Negative values are not allowed.

<div id="noPadding">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.
</div>
<div id="paddingBottom">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit, sed diam nonummy nibh euismod tincidunt ut laoreet dolore magna aliquam erat volutpat.
</div>
#noPadding {
width: 200px;
border: .5em solid #BBBBBB;
