I have a div class "note" which may or may not be more than one line of
text.

<div class="note">
text text dlkhf sdlkfjdsf
sdlkfj sldkjf sdlkjf sldk jf
dlfkjdlkjfldkjflkdjfljkd
</div>

I want the first line of "note" to be indented more than the others, so
tried this in the stylesheet:

div.note:first-line {
padding-left: 30px;
}

But it seems to have no effect. How do I achieve this? The only
examples I've seen operate on simple tags like p:first-line {...} etc.

PS - I also tried div:first-line.note {...} but no effect either.

Thanks for any pointers.
