css: margin does not work
Once in a while when two elements with the following criteria
- has only content (no padding and no border)
- has vertical margins applied to it
- Both the boxes have 20px vertical margins. They should have
40px
margins between them. - Due to the vertical margin collapse, they have only
20px
margin between them as shown in the below pen.
