Unitless "0" vlaues

[LukeAskew]

For CSS standards, you should not use units when the value is 0.

Proposed standard:

• Avoid using units when declaring 0 as a value.

  /* bad */
  .no-margin-left {
    margin-left: 0px;
  }
  
  /* good */
  .no-margin-left {
    margin-left: 0;
  }

@awood1261 @apartyka Thoughts?

Any time I ever see a unit attached to 0 I remove it. 0 is 0. There is no need to attach the unit.

Sidenote: I once found/replaced 200+ declarations of "0px" from a style sheet over 1000 lines long. It cut down around 140kb. So, one could argue for not adding it for optimization's sake.

I agree with the zero policy. One possible exception?

border: 0 none;

@mrbinky3000 Does that not work? What is the exception?

[mrbinky3000]

not an exception, I guess. 0 has no unit and "none" is in relation to the border type. So, not a problem.
