Some HTML elements have predefined margins  namely  body  h1 to h6  p  fieldset  form  ul  ol  dl  dir  menu  blockquote and dd    In your case it s the h1 causing your problem  It has   margin   67em   by default  If you set it to 0 it will remove the space   To solve problems like these generally  I recommend using your browser s dev tools  For most browsers  right-click on the element you want to know more about and select  Inspect Element   In the  Styles  tab  at the very bottom  you have a CSS box-model  This is a great tool for visualising borders  padding and margins and what elements are the root of your styling headaches

I would recommend you to reset all the HTML elements before writing your css with             margin  0      padding  0       After that  you can write your custom css  without any problems

I would say that using         margin  0    padding  0      is a bad way of solving this   The reason for the h1 margin popping out of the parent is that the parent does not have a padding   If you add a padding to the parent element of the h1  the margin will be inside the parent   Resetting all paddings and margins to 0 can cause a lot of side effects  Then it s better to remove margin-top for this specific headline

I found this problem continued even when setting the BODY MARGIN to zero   However it turns out there is an easy fix  All you need to do is give your HEADER tag a 1px border  aswell as setting the BODY MARGIN to zero  as shown below   body   margin 0px     header   border 1px black solid      You may also need to change the MARGIN to zero for any H1  H2  etc  elements you have within your HEADER div  This will get rid of any extra space which may show around the text   Not sure why this works  but I use Chrome browser  Obviously you can also change the colour of the border to match your header colour
