Values

<percentage>
-
The size of the padding as a percentage, relative to the inline-size (width in a horizontal language) of the containing block. Must be nonnegative.
Description
The padding-inline-end
property is defined in the specification as taking the same values as the padding-top
property. However, the physical property it maps to depends on the values set for writing-mode
, direction
, and text-orientation
. Therefore, it could map to padding-bottom
, padding-right
, or padding-left
.
It relates to padding-block-start
, padding-block-end
, and padding-inline-start
, which define the other paddings of the element.
