Padding in center box

I've spent way too much time trying to solve this on my own, so I'll just post the question. How do I add some left and right padding to the overall content area of the center box? As you can see at http://classicreissues.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=2 , I desperately need some left and right padding.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: Padding in center box

add this to end of your stylsheet.css and see if this helps.

.centerColumn {
padding:0.8em 2em 0.8em 2em;
}

Re: Padding in center box

Tony, I'm trying to add some additional content on the home page UNDER the centerboxes (eg featured products). So in includes/templates/custom/common/tpl_main_page.php, I added

<?php if ($this_is_home_page) { ?>

YOUR TEXT OR CODE

<?php } ?>

It adds content fine, but it is all severely flush left. Any clue how to make it obey the padding rule you gave me earlier for the center column?

Aha! Never mind, worked it out. I just wrapped that additional code in one of these:
