Is there any way to do a paragraph indentation at the start of a new paragraph instead of pushing the margins of the entire chunk? Thanks.

The easiest option is to use this code in front of a sentence:
Code:
[color=transparent].....[/color]

.....It will look like this. It basically makes the periods invisible in the browser and creates an indent without changing the entire margin of the text. You can play around with the amount of periods for smaller or bigger indents, too. The periods (or whatever else you put in there) do show up when highlighted though.

If that bothers you, you can create a transparent PNG image of 1 pixel high and 20 pixels (or more/less) wide and insert that in front of a sentence. It won't show and will create an indent, too.

What. That's... genius. I didn't even think of that. Thank you!

No problem! I amended my post with a second option. :)

I was all ready to say we don't have a simple method of doing this, and then Sanne goes and pushes the realms of possibility. Super cool! I'll remember that trick for the future too.
