Email design and coding is a critical task with different email clients rendering emails differently. Creating the right design and coding it the right way is a challenging chore for developers. Adding spaces in HTML email templates<\/a> that render well across all email clients is a difficult thing to do as there is no standard method to go about it. What works for one email client, device, browser or screen size may not work for another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Email developers are always trying to find out solutions and apply their own tricks while adding proper email spacing in HTML email. Let us take a look at some popular techniques used by developers. And in case you want to learn how to create an HTML email template, read it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Using the Cellpadding Attribute<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The cellpadding attribute can be used to create spacing between the cell wall and cell content. It specifies the space in pixels and is used with tables in HTML. This function is widely supported across all email clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can be used in the email template HTML code as cellpadding=\u201dvalue\u201d<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since it is an HTML attribute and not a CSS code, it lacks the ability to override it unlike overriding CSS codes with media queries. This attribute can be used when there is no need to alter the cellpadding for different devices or email clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Padding in <style><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The padding attribute facilitates<\/span> HTML email padding<\/a> and is widely used in web development. The advantage of using this attribute in email development is its ability to override in the head of the email. With this technique, media queries can be used to switch a 60-pixel padding for desktop to a 20-pixel padding on mobile.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can be used as <\/span>style=\u201dpadding:valuepx;<\/span><\/i>\u201d<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This method can be used whenever you need dynamic spacing and <\/span>padding in HTML emails.<\/strong> When it comes to adding spacing, this is considered to be the most simple and effective method.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
