I have the following html:
- Item 1
-
- Value 1
Do you mean something like:
Item 1 Value 1
Item 2
Item 3 Value 1
Value 2
Value 3
Because then I don't see why you can't apply the margin on the dd elements. I did a quick experiment, using the following CSS:
ul {
margin: -1.2em 0 0 100px;
padding: 0;
}
dd {
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
Which appears to have the effect you need.
