Simple question – what part of my CSS do I tweak to adjust the gap between a bullet/number and the first text character in an HTML list?

Bonus question – I’ve seen it mentioned here that controlling table spacing by adjust padding on table tr td {} is bad practice, but I haven’t seen someone explain how you’re really supposed to do it…?

    margin and padding should do it.

    i see no reason why you can’t have padding on a td. i do it and it works well. i think what people are moving towards now is a model of using divs and placing them like tables using css.

    <html>

<style>
    ul {}
    li { padding:0 0 0 30px ;}
</style>

<body>
    <ul>
        <li>one</li>
        <li>two</li>
    </ul>
</body>

</html>
