I'm starting out in HTML and CSS.
I have a div element on the page, which doesn't fill the whole page.
In it- there's a ul element and some list items in it.
I want to put the list 227px from the top of the div element, but I can't manage to accomplish this- it pushes it more.
Also- between the list items I want a margin of 40 pixels, but it also does more.
What's the problem?
Here's my code:
Html:
<body>
<div class="Hashta">
<div class="Menu">
<ul id="MenuItems">
<li><a href="#" >ONE</a></li>
<li><a href="#" >TWO</a></li>
<li><a href="#" >THREE</a></li>
<li><a href="#" >FOUR</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</body>
CSS:
body {
background-color: Gray;
}
.Hashta{
width:874px;
height:650px;
background-color:black;
margin: auto auto 50px auto;
border-radius: 20px;
border: 3px solid darkgray;
moz-box-shadow: 2px 2px 10px black;
webkit-box-shadow: 2px 2px 10px black;
box-shadow: 2px 2px 10px black;
}
.Menu {
margin-top: 227px;
padding-right: 50px;
float:right;
}
#MenuItems {
list-style:none;
}
#MenuItems li {
text-align:center;
position:relative;
padding: 4px 10px 4px 10px;
margin-right:30px;
margin-bottom: 40px;
border:none;
}
#MenuItems li a{
width: 280px;
height: 70px;
background-color: green;
color:White;
font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size:24px;
display:block;
outline:0;
text-decoration:none;
text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000;
line-height: 70px;
}
