How to Indent in an Italics Tag

So I have some text between italics tags like this:

<i> Lorem ipsum...</i>

I need to indent it. I have tried the text-indent css property, but it does not work on italics tags. For the layout of my programming, I CANNOT surround the italics tags in paragraph tags, nor span tags. Please help!

Solution

  • Can you use plain old padding and margins?

    i {
    padding-left: 5px;
}
