I have some links on my page. These links are surrounded by a border and background is set for them. They are in a box basicly.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<style>
a {
    background: #DDD;
    border: #BBB;
    padding:1px;
    width: 20em;    /*no effect*/
    height: 2em;    /*no effect*/
}
</style>
<a href="http://stackoverflow.com">1</a>

    Not understanding much but if you want the wrapper of same size than just use display: block; because <a> is an inline element hence you need to make it a block level element, or if you want the blocks inline, just use display: inline-block;

    <style>
    a {
        background: #DDD;
        border: #BBB;
        padding:1px;
        width: 20em;
        height: 2em;
        display: block; <------ Add This
    }
    </style>
