Hi
I would like to know how to give some padding between the news items on the front page. if you take a look at the two news items on the bottom of the page here you will see that they are so close that they almost run together. I want to add some space between these two news items. Can I change the padding in the css, or will I need to hack the template? And how do I go about doing it?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi,

Here the frontpage looks fine. (IE6). Nice site, by the way.

Regards,
Peter.

Hi Peter
I think Bill means the spacing between the two columns, in I.E 7 or FF 2 the text from the left column is so close to that in the right you can be forgiven for thinking the words are continued across the columns 🙂

I did a screenshot to demonstrate

Thanks Shannon, I did see it at last. 😉

Oke, here you go. In the template_css.css file search for:


table.contentpaneopen td, table.contentpane td {
}


and change it to (for example):


table.contentpaneopen td, table.contentpane td {
padding: 10px;
}


This must do the trick for you, Bill.

Regards,
Peter.

Thanks for clearing that up ShannonN. BTW, nice screenshot.
swemmel, Just by looking at the code you posted I am sure that this will do the trick. I will give it a try tonight, and thanks for the compliment.
