Space in HTML

Hi everyone, how do i put same space at the beginnning of a line, i don't want a new line (so i cann't use br and p tags), i just want the sentence to be a lite be inside)
thanks

 

  should do the trick if you are just looking for a space.

 

I believe you're looking for the   element, non-breaking space

This is the equivalent of one spacebar press, and you can stack them - browsers will recognize multiple instances.

 

thank you guys

 

You could use the text-indent property.

p {
    text-indent: 1em;
    }

Code (markup):

This will cause the first line of the p element to be indented by the specified amount. I'm not in favor of the non-breaking space for this use, as it mixes presentation with structure and violates the DRY principle. If you decide on a different indention, you must edit every file that has it. With css, you change it once.

cheers,

Ah, that's the property! I originally tried the following:

p:first-line { padding-left:1em }

But browsers didn't much care for that method

Thanks for that Gary.
