Formal syntax

<a href="css/padding-left" title="&lt;length&gt; | &lt;percentage&gt;"><'padding-left'></a>

Description  

The padding-inline-end CSS property defines the logical inline end padding of an element, which maps to a physical padding depending on the element's writing mode, directionality, and text orientation. It corresponds to the padding-top, padding-right, padding-bottom, or padding-left property depending on the values defined for writing-mode, direction, and text-orientation.

It relates to padding-block-start, padding-block-end, and padding-inline-start, which define the other paddings of the element.

Browser Compatibility  

[1] Available since Gecko 38, but behind the preference layout.css.vertical-text.enabled, then disabled by default.

[2] From Firefox 3, Gecko supports the prefixed -moz-padding-end.

[3] From Chrome 2 and Safari 3, the similar prefixed -webkit-padding-end are supported.
