I am trying to add some padding to my table; that is, I want to add
space
between the red outer border and the content within. However, setting
the
"padding : 30px;" within the TABLE area of my CSS doesn't seem to be
having
any affect. Is there a way to add padding to a table via CSS?
I can use <table CELLSPACING=[n]>, but it's a rather coarse way of
doing
so. I would prefer to add more padding to the left and right of the
main table content, but keep the top and bottom with zero space
between it and the colored border. Any advice is greatly appreciated
-- thanks in advance!
