Thank you for suggesting this, but I thought we (or at least me as a noob) are discouraged from using <br /> and encouraged to use only CSS. Also it doesn't work when the lines are too long for the screen. That's why I constructed the
Code:
left-indent:-1em;
in the original CSS example I provided. I'm sorry that I did not make that more plain. In my effort to be concise I achieved obscurity.
