Lesson 2 of our stylesheets tutorial was all about fonts and controlling text. This lesson is about how those words and lines can be spaced relative to one another. These stylesheets properties give us power over the space between words and letters, the leading (vertical spacing) between lines of text, and the alignment of text, margins and padding, borders, and floating elements.

Here's what we'll be covering:

• word-spacing
• letter-spacing
• line-height
• text-align
• vertical-align
• text-indent
• margin-top, margin-left, etc.
• padding-top, padding-left, etc.
• border-width, border-color, border-style, etc.
• float
• clear
