Would simply like to add some padding or margin

Would simply like to add some padding or margin to move this line of code to the right. Can you tell me how? Thanks

<IMG src="/sfolder/images/clear.gif" width=1 height=5><br><IMG src="/sfolder/images/link_arrow.gif"> <a href="?action=login">Home</a><br><

Code (markup):

 

Hello. You can use the CSS property 'padding-left' to apply padding to an element like so:

<IMG src="/sfolder/images/link_arrow.gif" style="padding-left:32px;">

HTML:

 

i'd use margin-left:32px; to move it right.

Plus:

<img src="/sfolder/images/clear.gif" alt="clear gif" width="1" height="5" /><br /><img src="/sfolder/images/link_arrow.gif" alt="arrow" /> <a href="?action=login">Home</a><br />

Code (markup):

Sorry, I just wanted to make the code look pretty.

 

That's not pretty. What the hell is a clear GIF? Sounds like crappy markup to me.

 

maybe it's a pixel shim? or some sort of hack... he's probably putting it in there to push something over instead of using padding or margin

 

That was already there. I just simply made the code he gave better.

 

you could do something as simple as img {margin-left: 10px;}

 

Or you could re-do the nav entirely and use the right elements for the right job. I'm pretty sure that's the nav and he's using misusing the image element which is supposed to be used for content, when it should just be a background image on an LI.
