Page width – cant get normally paddings

[tanotify]

Hello and sorry. Question is really easy, but after reading your web site and book, i did not get answer for it. So..
I want to make web site which have in psd file width – 1024 and left&right paddings – 38..
But after a lot of trying i cant to make relative design, where in size of window (1024px) will be same paddings..

My CSS:
#page {
width: 92,578125%; (948/1024)
margin: 20px auto; – is it just editing top margin?)
background: #ff00ff;
}

What i have-

Firstly, you should probably be using a reset or normalise css.

For a width as specified for the ‘page’ you should have

page {
width:1024px
padding:0 38px;
}

However, you should be aware that **normally** padding is ADDED to a specified width so the ACTUAL width will be 1100px.

To get round this you have to use change the way this is done with

* {
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box; /* Safari/Chrome, other WebKit */
-moz-box-sizing: border-box; /* Firefox, other Gecko */
box-sizing: border-box; /* Opera/IE 8+ */
}

I didn’t understand your issue correctly, but I believe, adding the float property may solve your issue. It will force layout to take padding or margin whatever you want to add.

You wouldn’t float a whole page!

And in any case…I don’t think that’s his issue.

Here’s an example of the difference: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/iFgmx
