html, body, div, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, ul, ol, dl, li, dt, dd, p, pre, table, th, td, tr { margin: 0; padding: 0; }

Is it accurate to use something like this?

If you want to remove margins and paddings from all selectors, then you should use the following code instead of the above posted:

* {
   margin: 0;
   padding: 0;
}

Here you will be using the "universal selector" ( * ):

And is safe to use it. Of course, after that, if you want an item to have margins, you will have to indicate it in your style sheet.
