Why there is a blank line at the top of the page?

2020-02-07 06:01发布

I've just learning HTML/CSS for a few days and I'm having trouble with this: enter image description here Why there is a blank line at the top of the page? Can someone tell me what was wrong or missing from my code? How can I fix it?

Here's my code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Document</title>
  <style>
    body {
      margin: 0;
      padding: 0;
    }
    
    header {
      text-align: center;
      background-color: lightgray;
    }
    
    header h1 {
      font-size: 70px;
    }
    
    ul {
      background-color: gray;
      padding: 10px;
    }
    
    li {
      display: inline;
      margin: 0 5px 0 5px;
    }
    
    a {
      color: white;
      text-decoration: none;
      text-transform: uppercase;
      font-size: 18px;
    }
  </style>
</head>

<body>
  <header>
    <h1>My Website</h1>
    <p>A sample website</p>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">HOMEPAGE</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">ABOUT ME</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">CONTACT</a></li>
    </ul>
  </header>
</body>

</html>

Thanks in advance!

The above blank line is caused by the browsers default css style.

Use normalize.css to reset the CSS applied by all the browser to a common one. So that you have level playgroud to apply styles.

This occurs because of parent and first child margin collapsing between the h1 and the margin of its parent element(s)

One solution would be to add border: 1px solid lightgray or add padding, or you can reset the margin itself to zero - see demo below:

body {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

header {
  text-align: center;
  background-color: lightgray;
  border: 1px solid lightgray;
}

header h1 {
  font-size: 70px;
}

ul {
  background-color: gray;
  padding: 10px;
}

li {
  display: inline;
  margin: 0 5px 0 5px;
}

a {
  color: white;
  text-decoration: none;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  font-size: 18px;
}
<header>
  <h1>My Website</h1>
  <p>A sample website</p>
  <ul>
    <li><a href="#">HOMEPAGE</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">ABOUT ME</a></li>
    <li><a href="#">CONTACT</a></li>
  </ul>
</header>

It's because your h1 has margins. To solve the issue, you need to reset h1's margin-top like this:

h1 {
  margin-top: 0;
}

And here is the working snippet:

<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Document</title>
<style>
    body{
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
    }

    header{
        text-align: center;
        background-color: lightgray;
    }

    header h1{
        font-size: 70px;
        margin-top: 0;
    }

    ul{
        background-color: gray;
        padding: 10px;
    }

    li{
        display: inline;
        margin: 0 5px 0 5px;
    }

    a{
        color: white;
        text-decoration: none;
        text-transform: uppercase;
        font-size: 18px;
    }
</style>
<body>
<header>
    <h1>My Website</h1>
    <p>A sample website</p>
    <ul>
        <li><a href="#">HOMEPAGE</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">ABOUT ME</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">CONTACT</a></li>
    </ul>
</header>
</body>

To solve this issue you can add margin-top:-45px; in header class.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <title>Document</title>
  <style>
    body {
      margin: 0;
      padding: 0;
    }
    
    header {
      text-align: center;
      margin-top:-45px;
      background-color: lightgray;
    }
    
    header h1 {
      font-size: 70px;
    }
    
    ul {
      background-color: gray;
      padding: 10px;
    }
    
    li {
      display: inline;
      margin: 0 5px 0 5px;
    }
    
    a {
      color: white;
      text-decoration: none;
      text-transform: uppercase;
      font-size: 18px;
    }
  </style>
</head>

<body>
  <header>
    <h1>My Website</h1>
    <p>A sample website</p>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">HOMEPAGE</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">ABOUT ME</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">CONTACT</a></li>
    </ul>
  </header>
