Hello, I am trying to follow the code from this simple css drop down menu here. I have the code which I am trying to make work with what I have currently. I want the spacing between the listed items for the menu. When I use the code from the website I cannot seem to set the spacing I need.
The code I have which I want to use below but as soon as I put in everything from the simple menu it just pushes everything together. It's not exactly what I was wanting. I was hoping maybe you can help.
#header {
float: left;
height: 168px;
width: 900px;
background: #0000ff;
}
#header ul {
list-style-type:none;
margin: 135px 0px 0px 8px;
}
#header li {
float:left;
padding: 6px 2px;
}
#header ul li a {
background:#6666FF;
border: 1px #FFFFFF solid;
color:#FFFFFF;
padding: 5px 10px;
text-decoration:none;
font-size:0.9em;
}
