menu problem css

[Ogierini]

hi,

I am trying to make a horizontal menu but it doesn't work as I wish.

Since there is a logo on the left site the menu appears on the right top site of the website.
www.ireneogier.nl/wb

But than I would like to each menu item to be just as large as the other one
so that the fall nicely above each other (see pic) , but if I put in a certain width, than the menu starts to be verticall.

I also want some padding on the left, but this  menu doesn't listen.

Any one some advice?


This s how I would like it to be: See picture.....

try display: block on menu items

You can set the width (and more) on the  #menu li selector.

Code: [Select]

#menu li {
    background: url("images/menublok.jpg") no-repeat scroll 0 -3px transparent;
    float: left;
    height: 20px;
    padding: 0 0 0 8px;
    width: 130px;
}Remove the background from the #menu a selector.

That will come very close.

this worked out great.

Thanks a lot.  



but now the hover is bugging me. #menu li a:hover I mean.
It should light up with white letters and a red background.
But I can't get it to the right.

The ull's and li's confuse me here...

Now you have the background set on the #menu li selector.
Try setting the hover background on #menu li:hover instead of the #menu li a:hover

that was it!
Great thanks a lot!
The only thing that doesnt work as it should are the colours in the letters in hover. They should turn white and 2 px from the top

This should be in #menu li a:hover {
?
or am I wrong?

The text is created with Cufon. For :hover you need to add some parameters to the setup.
The Cufon wiki tells something about this.

With Javascript disabled (so without Cufon) the text is white on hover.

Yes! That was it. Thank you very much...!
