How do I increase the space between cells in tables?

[jammer20002]

Can someone tell me how I can increase the space between cells in a table using CSS?

I've tried changing various parameters, but nothing seems to work?

The only way I can change the space is by changing the tables 'cell space' parameter.

But, doing this does not give me the desired effect, as all I want to do is change the space between the left and right sides and not top and bottom.

Thanks.

<td style="margin-top:10px; margin-left:10px; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px; position:relative;">
Try playing with one before you apply it to all, try swapping out absolute and relative and see what it does.

Since I don't know exactly what effect you're trying for, here is everything you ever wanted to know about table formatting but were afraid to ask.
