[SOLVED] Add space between border and text

I figured how to move the header in the style posts and pages area but where can i set padding for the text itself?

I am not real clear on what you are asking as the padding for what it seems you are talking about is in the same section of the theme options

Thx for a fast reply!
Well I added padding to the header in the style posts and pages section. Where should I add it for the rest of the text?

In the Style Posts and Pages section there are many boxes you can add styling to. It just depends on whether you want to style the header as you did or the body or the byline etc.

I'm having the same problem, which is to say that the text in the Post (or Page) is flush up against the left margin of the box, and changing padding or margin in

ATO > Body, Text and Links > Body Style

seems to change the box, but never moves the text relative to the box. I have tried putting either margin or padding in various places that supposedly change the text, and to no avail.

http://horanda.com/?p=49

shows a sample page. I want to move the text in from the edge of the box about 5 or so px.

Edit: in APO > Style POSTS and PAGES there is an entry for HEADLINE Box: Text
But there is no corresponding entry for BODY Box: Text

I am using Athahualpa 3.4.9 / WP 3.0.1

OK, solved -- the confusion is that I thought that moving the text would somehow mean that I was modifying the information about the TEXT and not the information about the BOX.

APO > Style POSTS and PAGES > BODY Box

I inserted padding-left: 25px;

and it gave me my desired result.

It might be worthwhile to have a little more information in the instructions above that, since many of us users are not CSS programmers inherently.
