Default Values

eg.

div { margin:inherit auto; }

These default values can generally be used on all properties:

  1. initial: initial value
  2. inherit: value computed on the parent element
  3. unset: 'inherit' if inherited, 'initial' otherwise
  4. revert: (not well supported by browsers)
  5. auto: a value determined automatically (not all properties)

   <section style="font-size:60px;">
      <p style="font-size:inherit;">auto</p>
      <p style="font-size:initial;">initial</p>
   </section>
   <p style="font-size:unset;">unset</p>
</body></html>

You can use the 'all' shorthand CSS property to reset all of an element's properties. Eg.

p { all: initial !important; }

The phrase 'CSS Reset' refers to a short, often compressed set of CSS rules that resets the styling of all HTML elements to a consistent baseline. This avoids as much as possible cross-browser differences arising from the use of different 'user agent' default stylesheets.
