Need space between text and a table.

Todd R · 12-15-2009, 02:38 PM

I inserted a biographical table into my sales page, on the right hand side of the page. The sales page text remains to the left of the border of the table, but there is not space between the text and the table border. It looks as if the text is run smack into the border. How can I get a space inserted with html? Thanks for the help.

Can you post the code for that part of your page (or a link)? It will help to give you the best answer. Most likely, you can use CSS, but the question would be on which part of the page to apply it.

Dont know which Web Editor you are using but you should find the following works:

Go to Table>Properties and setting the padding to be 10px or whatever you need.

If that doesn't work then highlight the text and then Format>Paragraph and you will be able to select the space in there.

Or insert another table within the cell, and set the size and position of it to be a little smaller than the cell within which it is contained, set the border size to zero and enter your text.

The tidy way is to use CSS but if your using tables you may be more comfortable with the above techniques.

yah, we need to see your code before we can give a definate answer, but Anthony's tip would do the trick. you just need to set either padding or margin between the left and right sections.

seeing the code and the actual site will definitely help. Sounds like you just need to add padding, as the others have already suggested
