CSS second-line indent not working

Question

Page in question: http://www.rjlacount.com/public/lander/

I'm probably just doing something stupid, but I'm trying to indent the second line of wrapping text inside the form (with "Your account: [email protected]" at the top) and I can't seem to get anything to work.

I would think the solution is:

form span {padding-left:1.5em;text-indent:-1.5em;}

but this only seems to indent the first line of each section.

Another look at this would be much appreciated, thanks!

Answer 1

If the element is inline it will indent the first line, otherwise if it's a block element it will indent the rest of the lines, which is just like Briguy37 said, since that's the difference between DIV and SPAN. I just wanted to clear out that it's not a "problem with span".

Answer 2

For some reason, this works with a DIV, but not with a SPAN. Not really sure why, but here's a fiddle with the same CSS for both.
