anomalous - margin, padding, width
1. Padding is fixed at 2px: (But HR is actually offset from its background-color);
2. Padding has no effect, horizontal nor vertical....
3. Width default or width:100% overshoots under the right vertical-Scrollbar about halfway, thus invoking the bottom horizontal-Scrollbar;
(NB. width:99% or margin:-1 does not-have this anomaly.)
4. Margin:-N (ie. negative) does not-outdent HR (Other elements margin can outdent).
5. The anomaly is not, margin, text-indent, left, padding, border, (except as above).
