Browsers' Default CSS For HTML Elements


Answer :

It's different for each browser, so:

  • Firefox (Gecko): https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/layout/style/res/html.css. Or, browse to resource://gre-resources/ and look at html.css.
  • Chrome/Safari (WebKit): http://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/Source/WebCore/css/html.css
    • Chrome (Blink): https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/blink/+/master/Source/core/css/html.css
  • Internet Explorer (Trident), older versions: http://web.archive.org/web/20170122223926/http://www.iecss.com/

You can also look at the HTML5 Boilerplate stylesheet, which "normalizes the display of a lot of stuff without being a reset in the traditional sense". It also fixes quite a few bugs/inconsistencies.

It's also worth looking at: https://github.com/necolas/normalize.css/blob/master/normalize.css
