[WSG] Noobie: Padding-top, padding-bottom

[Douglas Reith]

Hi All, I'm thinking this should be a quick one because I'm pretty useless with CSS... I know this will sound strange, but I don't have control over the whole HTML/CSS of the page. What I do have is control over a piece of text that is displayed which I want there to be some padding around so I did this: <font style="padding: 20px">Hello World</font> But it only pushes the text to the left and doesn't add space to the top or the bottom. This: <font style="padding-bottom: 20px">Hello World</font> does nothing unfortunately. Am I using this totally the wrong way? (probably!) Can I use something else to fudge the same result? P.S. Tested in FF and IE.
