Hi, this is not the first time I have the similar problem that the margin top and bottom have no effect for inline span class.
http://project.lotusseedsdesign.com/sh1/follows-1018-span.html for the above page, I declared "margin-left: 30px;margin-top: 500px; " for the following span class, and the margin top doesn't work. P/s. I don't really want the tab drops 500px below, simply want to make a point here so you can see it clearly that it truly doesn't work. div.table_follows span.unselected { color: #fff;padding: 8px 15px 9px 15px; background: #F3918E;font-size: .95em; margin-left: 30px;margin-top: 500px; border-top:9px solid #fff; border-left: none; border-right: none;} thanks! tee ______________________________________________________________________ Hi Tee, This won't work because the span is an inline element, and top and bottom paddings and margins don't apply to inline elements. Cheers, Alex. ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
