How to define CellPadding in GridView in ASP.NET

Question

• I autoformat a GridView in ASP.NET.

• It looks nice but the headers all run together like this:

  idfirstNamelastNameage

• I set CellPadding="5" but it does nothing.

How can I set the cell padding of the headers and all cells?

Thanks Andrew, I fixed it with this. Works in Firefox and Explorer 7:

.gridview2 tr td
{
    padding: 5px;
    border: 1px solid #ddd;
}
.gridview2 tr th
{
    padding: 5px;
}

GridView also has a property "CellPadding" and "CellSpacing" that can help us do this.
