• I have made progress in designing my website r-a-millerfoundation.org
    I created a two inch padding on the left side by indenting, but I need to now create the same margin on the right side of the page. I think I need to increase the padding for the right side of the pages (NOT INCLUDING THE HOME PAGE).

    Can anyone help resolve my problem?

  • Hi…

    yeah, don’t use “indent”…use padding for both left and right margins.

    This is what I see in your css right now:

    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    border: 0;
    font-size: 100%;
    vertical-align: baseline;

    Recommend you remove the “indent” you’ve placed…and set your margin value to something like this:

    margin: 0px 20px 0px 20px;
    padding: 0;
    border: 0;
    font-size: 100%;
    vertical-align: baseline;

    Play with the two “20px” values until you get it where you want.

    Thanks. This actually shifted the page. I am looking to increase the margin in the body of the page.

    Sorry bro…

    Try this instead then:

    margin: 0;
    padding: 0px 20px 0px 20px;
    border: 0;
    font-size: 100%;
    vertical-align: baseline;

    padding value instead of margin. My bad.

    That didn’t work either. I just need to change the margins inside the page.

    i think I’m misunderstanding what you want to accomplish then.

    I just looked at the page and the margins are definitely different.

    Sorry for the confusion.
    On the “about us” page I removed the indent that gave a 2 inch white space on the right.On the “Our work” page, I lift the 2 inch white space area on the left in which I am trying to have the right side mirror so it will be symmetrical.

    Sorry for the misspelling. On the “About Us” page, I removed the indentation that manually provided the two inch white space before the writing. On the “Our Work” page I left the indentation that increased the white space. My ultimate goal is for the text to start 1/2 inch before the word “home” and and end 1/2 inch after the word “contact us” in the navigation menu.
