 * I’m pretty much new at CSS, so please forgive my ignorance.
 * Here is my current accordion code that adds the +/- icon and changes the color.
 * .accordion-title:after {
    color:Red; content: “+”; float: left; } .accordion-
   title.open:after { content: “\2212”; }
 * However, I’d like to add a tab (5-10 spaces), between the +/- icon and the text
   and I’m unable to figure out.
 * Example
    + (5-10 spaces) Do you know the Muffin man? – (5-10 spaces) Is he the
   one who lives on Mullberry lane?
 * Any suggestions?
    Thanks

 * Solution was to add “padding-right: 20px;” to the code and that did the trick.

 * Yup. Adding `padding-right` or `margin-right` will do the trick. Glad you got
   it working.
