padding and margin

Why he added both? "padding-bottom" in "title" and "margin-top" in "h1" Isn't only "margin-top" in "h1" enough?

Hi Aakash,

By setting the padding-bottom Guil is able to push the border-bottom further down the text 'Journey Through the Sierra Nevade Mountains'. If he would not set a padding-bottom value the border would stick right below the text.

Next time you come across something like this that makes you question why something is happening type each line of code separately and preview the results in the browser. See what happens when you type each individual line of code and try to understand why it does what it does.

Good luck! Max
