I need some help

[The Godfather]

I am new to css so i can't code my whole website with it yet, but what i really need right now is where to code for text padding in html or interpret it.

See i have a table with 4 cells, top is header, lower is bar for links, the 3rd is the body, and the final one is a small bar for copyright.

I need text padding in the body so the line doesn't start

| <-- here

but it starts

_____| <-- here


Pls help, any suggestions on different codes or anything.

Given this div...

<div id=bodydiv></div>

This will give you 10px between block left border and the left content margin...

#bodydiv
{
padding-left: 10px;
}

This will give you 10px between block left border and the left border of the enclosing block...

#bodydiv
{
margin-left: 10px;
}

You can also use text-indent:10px for only indenting the first lines.
