Leaving space between lines or paragraphs.

How do I add a space between lines or paragraphs in the stock theme that I am using? I tried adding the tag
and it does not add a space between lines or paragraphs. See this link “http://invictatrader.com/bbpress/topic/momentum-trading-a-practical-day-trading-strategy-to-get-profits-from-hot-stock” for an example.

Thank you.

It’s controlled by your CSS. The [p] tags are there for paragraphs, but they need more space. Something like this:
```
#thread .post p {

margin-bottom: 20px;

}
```
That will space them out. I added it around line 647 in style.css and it worked fine.

This is what I saw in the CSS of my stock theme.
```
#thread .post {

_height: 90px; /* Hack to fix broken .alt coloring in IE6 */

}
```
So modify it to something like this?
```
#thread .post {

_height: 90px; /* Hack to fix broken .alt coloring in IE6 */

margin-bottom: 20px;

}



Thank you.

Adding ` #thread .post p {

margin-bottom: 20px;

} ` does not increase the spacing between paragraphs for me. I am using Kakumei.

Thanks.

Changing this line helped. pre, p { margin-bottom: 0.0em; }

Thanks.

All the suggestions so far either did not specifically help or just added general spacing in between lines…

Spacing between paragraphs does not seem to be going.

Use Firebug addon in Firefox to catch up with CSS.

Right click on any element > Inspect element and its CSS goes at the right hand side. Play with it.
