Obsolete
This feature is obsolete. Although it may still work in some browsers, its use is discouraged since it could be removed at any time. Try to avoid using it.
The obsolete hspace
property of the HTMLImageElement
interface specifies the number of pixels of empty space to leave empty on the left and right sides of the <img>
element when laying out the page.
This property reflects the HTML hspace
attribute.
Syntax
htmlImageElement.hspace = marginWidth; marginWidth = htmlImageElement.hspace;
Value
An integer value specifying the width, in pixels, of the horizontal margin to apply to the left and right sides of the image.
Usage notes
The value specified for hspace
is mapped to the margin-left
and margin-right
properties to specify the width of those margins in pixels.
Important: This property is obsolete. You should instead use the CSS margin
property and its longhand forms to establish margins around an <img>
.
