How do I position my web pages on the left hand side of the screen?

Im trying to figure out how to position my pages against the left hand side of the screen - rather than them being centred on the screen.

Ideally, I would like my pages to sit about 30px from the left hand side of the screen. This then doesnt alter when the window size is changed.

Anyone know how to do this?
Im sure its very simple but Im very rusty at this after six months out.

Thanx

Jaz

thanks.

Also - any idea how I can make the EZ banner text white (HOME | ABOUT US | OUR STORES) , without affecting any other link appearances?
I've tried altering the CSS but cant change this area independently.

margin-top: 0;

font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;

font-size: 62.5%;

color: #000000;

background-color: #ffffff;

}

#navColumnOneWrapper, #navColumnTwoWrapper/*, #mainWrapper */{

margin: auto;

}

sorry - that hasnt changed anything on my site.

I copied and pasted in the code you provided into my css, but nothing happened.

Might there be something elsewhere that is telling it to centre the pages?

Even bigger SORRY....

I'd forgotten to comment out the second part.

That worked a treat. Thanks Kim.
