 space using CSS?
Ok, you know sometimes you need things spaced out like if you're using tables? with html you'd use:
Which is just plane annoying and there must be a more semantic way than using that. So can anyone suggest something? Please, thanks

Use relative or absolute positioning instead.

There are lots of ways... positioning (relative, absolute), padding, margins, etc. As far as semantic HTML is concerned, don't put in any filler text at all.

ok. i'll refer to that then.
Is this peice of code redundant for what I'm trying to accomplish?
.designboxPadding {
padding-left: 10px;
}
.designboxPadding1 {
padding-left: 6px;
}
.designboxPadding2 {
padding-left: 23px
}
.designboxPadding3 {
padding-left: 33px
}

Basically I'm trying to accomplish even space between words. It's like I'm trying to create a 3 colum table to display the information. Only I want to do it using CSS. The codes I used worked well but I want to know if their might be a better way or if it's just TOO redundant.
I tried using position but I couldn't get it to work.

Try adding:
position: absolute;
That might work.

You mean you want word spacing? I diddn't really understand but there is a CSS value which can put so many pixels between every word?
