Can't insert a space before a result

[webnewbie10]

Hi:

I thought I was trying to do something very simple... add a space before the results {beds}.

I've tried margin-left, padding-left, &nbsp before {beds} but can't get it to move to the right a bit...

I think the PHP is messing with it, but not sure where to start.

<div class="group">
    <div class="label"><label>Beds:</label></div>
    <div class="field" style="width:435px; margin-top:-3px;">{beds}</div>
   </div>

Thanks in advance 🙂 Jami

This is what it looks like currently, if this helps... I want more space btwn the field and the different kinds of beds.

You are posting to the wrong forum. Post in the Dreamweaver forum and include your CSS.

Oh sorry. I thought this was a PHP issue (Isn't that what the "{" signify?)

I needed to hunt down this code (which was hard, since I don't know much beyond basic html and css.)

I changed /"width:17px/" to /"width:13px/" and it worked. (I decided the boxes could be a bit less wide, and that resolved my other issue.

I don't know why it worked. But it did. Phew!

$bString = "";
          $b = $this->getBeds(array("byRef" => true));
          foreach($b as $bed){
           $bString .= "
                  <div style=\"float:left;\">
                   <div style=\"float:left; width:35px;\">
                    <input type=\"text\" style=\"width:13px;\" name=\"bed-".$bed['id']."\" id=\"bed-".$bed['id']."\" value=\"".intval(@$beds[$bed['id']])."\" />
                   </div>
                   <div style=\"float:left; width:175px; padding-top:10px;\">
                    ".urldecode($bed['bed_name'])."
                   </div>
                  </div>";
          }

Your html code IS contained in a php variable, but once the server is done with it the browser just see's html. So it's still a html rendering issue you are dealing with and these are better handled in the Dreamweaver forum. Glad you got it worked out though.

By the way, I would not hardcode the backslashes in your code as it makes it hard to maintain. If you need to add slashes, think about using addslashes() or a DBMS specific function if available.
