Correction:

The bg color and border are on the <a href>, so when you add margin,
it's sliding the a over which is exactly what you want, but the bg
color and border are moving too.

OK, maybe not. Changing the padding works, like padding: 3px 0 3px 30px;



glad to hear you say that! yes, padding does work...I guess maybe that's even more insight into the block nature such that margin moves the whole

thank you!
