<blockquote class='quote-from-book'> <p><span class='ic'>&#8220;</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.&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>
<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&nbsp;zero:</p>
<pre><code><code>p {
text-indent:0 }
</code></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>
