Are you editing in Writer?
Go to View -web layout and you can adjust margins there.
also format - page and actual margin settings are here

That doesn't quite answer the question - how to do it in OOo Writer
They say there's no such thing as webpage margins. Actually yes, there is something like that
For example:
<style type="text/css">
body {margin-top: 10px}
body {margin-bottom: 10px}
body {margin-left: 10px}
body {margin-right: 10px}
</style>
And that's it.
But is there a way to do it in Writer? |

| Try changing attributes of predefined HTML Style ( or a child of it). It has options for margins. |

Where can I find it? In "Styles and Formatting" window there are styles for paragraphs, characters and lists, but page styles are unavailable in Writer/Web mode |

| You can modify the "Text body" margin by right-clicking it in the "Styles and Formatting" window (F11), left-clicking "Modify" and going to "Indents & Spacing". |

You can only set left and right margins this way, but I found another way to set all margins.
In the HTML source view, "@page" needs to be replaced with "body". This results in web browsers showing margins set in Format -> Page section.
Unfortunately, you have to replace "@page" with "body" every time you save the file
I hope this will change in further versions of OOo |
