Here's the CSS rule:
I { position: relative; left: 40px; top: 10px }
Here's the HTML code:
<H3>CSS positioning is peachy. <I>Finally I can place things where I truly want them on a page. Ahh.</I></H3>
And here's the result:
CSS positioning is peachy. Finally I can place things where I truly want them on a page. Ahh.
As you can see, the italicized text is displayed 40 pixels over and 10 pixels down from where it would normally be displayed.
