CSS Rollover Padding

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 29.2008

I’m fairly new to css, but am trying to impliment a roll over on my navbar div

My CSS is :

[CODE]#navi a:hover {
font-family: Arial, Verdana, Georgia, “Arial Rounded MT Bold”;
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: normal;
color: #0C1A55;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
display: inline;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
padding-top: 8px;
padding-right: 4px;
padding-bottom: 8px;
padding-left: 4px;
}
#navi a:link {
color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: Arial, Verdana, Georgia, “Arial Rounded MT Bold”;
font-size: 14px;
}
#navi a:active {
color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: Arial, Verdana, Georgia, “Arial Rounded MT Bold”;
font-size: 14px;

}
#navi a:visited {
color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: Arial, Verdana, Georgia, “Arial Rounded MT Bold”;
font-size: 14px;
}
[/CODE]

and my HTML is:

[CODE]<div id=”navi”><a>Corporate Events</a> <a>The Fleet</a> <a> Corporate Hospitality</a><a> Team Building</a><a> Incentives &amp; Rewards</a> <a>Locations</a></div>[/CODE]

The rollover works fine but it moves the rest of the text in the DIV when i rollover one of the headings. How do i keep it so the rest of the links remain still?

Please forgive me if i’m missing something really obvious.

Thanks
J

@CentauriMay 29.2008 — Set everything in the <a> first, then only define what you want [I][B]changed[/B][/I] on the hover :[CODE]#navi a {
font-family: Arial, Verdana, Georgia, "Arial Rounded MT Bold";
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: normal;
color: #FFFFFF;
display: inline;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
padding-top: 8px;
padding-right: 4px;
padding-bottom: 8px;
padding-left: 4px;
}
#navi a:hover {
color: #0C1A55;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
[/CODE]

@ohausurferauthorMay 29.2008 — The rollover is working but its just applying it to the text and the padding isnt working in IE.

Working great in FF.

Thanks

@interpoleraterMay 29.2008 — IE 6 and lower only supports :hover when used on <a> tags.
