Ive got a block of text, and i want to write the authors name and date bellow it in small italics, so i put it in a \[code\]<span>\[/code\] block and styled it, but i want to space the name out a little bit so i applided margin (also tried padding) to the block but it cant get it to work.Ive made a jsfiddle of the issue - HEREThe html looks like \[code\]<p><p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Ipsa omnis obcaecati dolore reprehenderit praesentium.<br><span>Author Name, Year</span></p> \[/code\]The CSS\[code\]p {font-size:24px; font-weight: 300; -webkit-font-smoothing: subpixel-antialiased;}p span {font-size:16px; font-style: italic; margin-top:50px;}\[/code\]
