Block category of the CSS Rule Definition dialog box.
To use the menus, choose Text ??? Align and then pick the alignment you prefer (Left, Right, Center, or

Indenting entire paragraphs
HTML offers a tag that enables you to indent whole paragraphs, such as inset quotations or name-andaddress
blocks. Not too surprising, the tag used is called the
tag. Dreamweaver gives you
instant access to the tag through the Indent and Outdent buttons located on the Text
Property inspector, as shown in Figure 8-20.
