Hi Ted,
What's the difference between what you do and * {margin: 0; padding: 0;}?
Serious question - I do the latter, and so I need to know if I'm missing
out somewhere.
Thanks,

I've been adding this to the top of my style sheets:
html, body, div, h1, h2, h3, h4, ul, li, dl, dt, dd, ol, form {margin: 0;
padding: 0;}
I like to reset the major elements and then set new margins and paddings on
the specific elements when needed. This also gets rid of the repetitive
margin:0; padding:0; declarations.
This is not unique to me. Others have done more extensive reset commands.

I'd say you are pushing a bit too far, it is not bad to have an idea how
will page look like using only browser default stylesheet, and it does not
make learning separation from presentation any more difficult.
But if you still wish to do so here you may find some info:
