How to add margin right to table [closed]

Question

I have following html:

<table width="100%;>
        <tr><hr style="width:100%;"></hr></tr>
        <tr>
            <span style="float:left">abc</span>
            <span class="noindex" style="float:right">PageID</span>
        </tr>
        <br/>
        <tr>Some text here...</tr>
</table>

I want to add 100px margin from right of the screen. i tried adding margin-right and removing width =100% it is not working.

Answer 1

margin-right will not work if you set width to 100%. What you could do is :

1. wrap table in a div tag. add margin to div
2. set table width to 100%

UPDATED If you are creating a page layout, then you should be using divs instead of tables. Tables are appropriate for data display (like custom grid style view).

<div>
    <div style="margin-right:100px">
        <table style="width:100%">
            //your table
        </table>
    </div>
</div>

Hope it helps.
