I have what should be a simple issue: On my newest rendition of http://www.derekbeck.com/1775 the "Recent Updates" line is a table cell spanning three cells. (The three cells of this table are the left side, a spacer in the middle, and the right side.) The line you see is a border-bottom set by CSS. I want more spacing below that line, before the next row which shows the first of the recent posts.
I tried doing it by setting that table row with a margin-bottom value, but nothing happens. I did the same for the table cell containing "Recent Updates", but still nothing. padding-bottom works but simply increases the spacing between "Recent Updates" and the line. I want the spacing AFTER the line, before the next table row.
Any ideas?
Instead of putting the dotted border on the cell, put it on the "Recent Updates" div, then increase the size of the table cell by setting height: ##px
and make it have vertical-align: top;
(or use padding-bottom
on the cell).
