That works perfectly fine on XP fx2 and fx3b5, and OS X Safari 3.x,
fx 2 and fx 3.
The default values for padding-left and padding-right in Gecko and
WebKit [1] happen to 6px.
Try changing the value to something big like 100px; you should see a
difference.
(and if you don't, please post a URL that illustrates the issue you
have, there might be something overriding your rules)
[1] on OS X at least, no Safari Win here.
