How's this:
p { background: url(someimage.png) no-repeat left top; }
p:first-letter { padding-left: 15px; }Works in IE5.5 onwards. 5 and below don't quite get it, I'm afraid. If 5 is your target, you may have to resort to using a sacrificial span
<p><span></span>blah blah...</p>
and the convoluted
p { background: url(arrow_on.png) no-repeat left top; }
p span { padding-left: 15px; display: block; float: left;}Patrick H.
