That's exactly what I want: I have text being output from a dynamic system and don't want to hard-code an before the text output, but instead want to pad it has you mention so it sits consistently with the adjacent text. Thanks all for the help. I'm testing 0.5ex at the moment, but I knew there was a reason I avoid using ex units. I'll change this to 0.25em and tweak from there. -- http://antanova.blogspot.com ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
