How can I remove default textarea margin in html?

Question

I'm a Web developer.

I have one question about textarea default margin value.

http://jsfiddle.net/tTnCd/175/ This link is jsfiddler site.

I make CSS by

textarea {    
    position: absolute;
}

<textarea>tyjyjyj</textarea>

enter image description here

If you inspect it in your browser via developer tools, you'll see that that's actually the default margin for the body. You'll want to remove your CSS and do what @Rajath Kumar PM suggested. :)

There is concept of Reset CSS and normalize CSS. Please go through them. Here is the one nice explaination for that.

What is the difference between Normalize.css and Reset CSS?

Point 2 is try to avoid position absolute to make it to corner of the page. Absolute is not intended for that.It alters dimensions of the parent div.So please use absolute and fixed wisely and where it is intended to.
