Width and Height
Use the width and
height properties to specify the
dimensions of a block-level element or an inline replaced element (like an
image). The width and height properties do not
apply to inline text (non-replaced) elements and will be ignored by
standards-conformant browsers. In other words, you cannot specify the
width and height of an anchor (a) or a
strong element unless you change its
display role to a block-level display value like block, list-item, or inline-block.
