Indent a table or td or tr 3

[itech20059]

Hi can anyone give me an example on how to indent a row in a table. Or maybe the entire table like a quater of an inch.

table{indent: 2em;}

do you think that will work?

try giving it a left margin:

table {
   margin-left:2em;
}

ah, the css you're looking for is: margin.

The W3C schools is generally a pretty good reference for (X)HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Thank you that indented the entire table. Now could I apply a class to indent only 1 row?

something like this:

css
#indent {margin-left: 1em;}



<td class="indent">data</td>

That seems to have no effect on the tag.

change your css to:

.indent {margin-left: 1em;}

. is class - it can be applied to many elements. # is id, it can be applied to only one element.

Seems to be working but only the first line. I would like all the text in the <td> tag to be indent a bit.

I have tried anything.

Would wrapping or floating help me out?

try giving the cell some padding instead of a margin.

td.myCell { padding:1em; }
