padding-top on the div? Margin-top on the element if margin containment (overflow:hidden or float on parent) is working?
Since you don't seem to be asking about scripting Ibrahim Tanyalcin answer seems a bit irrelevant, though in general your question is incomplete and just begs more questions. What's the element you're trying to adjust, are you just talking normal style? What else is set on that DIV for CSS properties?
