Simon,
You're half way there with the negative text-indent on the first line to
create "outdent". Now just add the same value (but positive) for the
left-margin of the element to move everything over and bring the start of
the first line back to the original start point.

Subject: [css-d] Help with text indent
I´m trying to get the following effect in a list item:
10/10/2005 - bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla ...
And have the text wrap, so that the next line starts under the first "bla",
ike this (this will only work with a fixed-width font):
10/10/2005 - bla bla bla bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla bla
bla bla bla bla bla.
I've tried text-indent with negative values, but it throws the whole list
off screen.
I appreciate any pointers in the right direction.
Simon Scudder
