Hanging indent problem. Unsolvable?

[Kropotkin]

Hi

Does anyone know how to do this?

I have the text:

[code]
<span>Vous entendez</span> What do you usually do for Mother’s Day?
What do you usually do for Mother’s Day?
[code]

And I want to make it so the second line starts a little way in from the left margin - with the second 'What do' starting under the entendez perhaps.

I can't see any obvious way to do this as the second line can't be put in a span because we don't know in advance where the second line starts. I think this can't be done?

Thanks for all yoru help

Why not?

Can't you just use text-indent?

Why is the first line in a span?

[Kropotkin]

Because it is being generated dynamically

So - we can't use text-indent because to do so you have to put the second line in a span and as i say we don't know where that will start.

The first line is not in a span. But the first few words of it are. This is so we can apply a class to those words
