What HTML command do you use to create the correct number of spaces for a specific indentation?

Thanks, Charles, that helped me with several projects. Sorry I took so long to get back.



I guess what would be even more useful would be some kind of HTML code that would act as a kind of TAB command.

Is that what you were looking for?

Now evey time you use <p class="tab"> </p> the content between will have the indent.

Does em = 2 characters? How about 1 character? And how do you change the tab setting within the document.



Sorry the text in these communiques is all jammed together. Drives me batty. :mad:



This module understands vertical spacing, but I don't think it's ever heard of horizontal spacing - or at least it only doles them out one space at a time...

@NogDogJan 19.2006 — Traditionally, an em is equal to the width of a capital "M" in the font being used. In current practice on computer fonts, an em is equal to the font size: if using 14pt Verdana then 1em = 14 points.
