Life is confusing. Just when I think I'm getting things sorted out this happens. Why does a "margin:0", which I did not know existed until you told me, be dependent on an earlier "margin-top:0" to function. BTW, neither can be omitted nor can they be exchanged. Go figure!

Margin: 0 is a shorthand for All margins (top,right,bottom,left) to the same value (in this case 0), otherwise, you may need to set either/and Margin-bottom and margin-top
