See the post after this about Blogs Disappear to see more results of using the text-indent.
| Step One Occurs In The Template |

| Every once in a while, someone asks how to indent a paragraph and overcome the habit HTML has of not recognizing more than one space in a row! In your template's CSS, place this line: .p2 p {text-indent: 25px;} Don't ignore the "." in front of p2 above; it's only needed that once. The "p2" is an arbitrary name. You could name yours "piddle" or "Ralph". That instruction is telling the p2 style that an opening paragraph tag should have that much of an indentation. You could increase or decrease the number. Save your template so that it'll have this new instruction at hand. Only this paragraph of this post is indented. When you next write a post, every "paragraph" should have the paragraph start tag! As far as I know, it's the only way for the system to know that it's supposed to be a paragraph. Once it knows that fact, it knows to follow the style instruction and make a text indentation of that specified (25px) width. |

| The instruction that tells your blog to apply that rule is when you surround your post with an open and close "div" tag like so: <div class=p2> text </div> |
