<blockquote class='quote-from-book'> <p><span class='ic'>“</span>The function of a paragraph indent is to mark a pause, setting the paragraph apart from what precedes it. If a paragraph is preceded by a title or subhead, the indent is superfluous and can therefore be omitted.”</p>

<p>Paragraphs, and other block level elements, are indented using the <code>text-indent</code> property. To ensure a paragraph is set flush left, the text-indent should be set to zero:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre><code>p {
|
|
text-indent: 0;
|
|
}</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>This rule is rarely necessary, however, because <abbr title="Cascading Style Sheets">CSS</abbr> specifies that the default initial value for <code>text-indent</code> should be <code>0</code>.</p>
