HTML - CellPadding - One side?

[smashin]

I cant find answers any where in cyber space. Maybe somebody here knows whether its possible to "pad" just one side (top, bottom, left OR right) of a cell?

Thanks.

yes it is would be like

padding-top : 10px ( sub bottom, right, or left for top where needed)

nice. thanks.

So I would create something like
.test {
padding-left: 10px;
padding-right: 0px;
padding-top: 0px;
padding-bottom: 0px;
}

and then call the class something like:

<DIV class="test">table that i want padded on the left only</DIV>

Does that look right?

OOHH I GOT IT *grins*

check it out-

.leftbar {
padding-left: 2px;
padding-right: 0px;
padding-top: 0px;
padding-bottom: 0px;
}

...

<div class="leftbar"></DIV>
