CSS- removing horizontal space in list menu using display inline property
- by Kayote
Hi All,
Im new to CSS and have a set target of learning & publishing my website in CSS by the end of the month.
My question:
Im trying to build a CSS horizontal menu with hover drop downs, however, when I use the 'display: inline' property with li (list) items, I get horizontal spaces between the li (list) items in the bar. How do I remove this space?
Here is the html:
<div id="tabas_menu">
<ul>
<li id="tabBut0" class="tabBut">Overview</li>
<li id="tabBut1" class="tabBut">Collar</li>
<li id="tabBut2" class="tabBut">Sleeves</li>
<li id="tabBut3" class="tabBut">Body</li>
</ul>
</div>
And here is the CSS:
#tabas_menu {
position: absolute;
background: rgb(123,345,567);
top: 110px;
left: 200px;
}
ul#tabas_menu {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
.tabBut {
display: inline;
white-space:
list-style: none;
background: -webkit-gradient(linear, 0% 0%, 0% 100%, from(rgba(255,142,190,1)),to(rgba(188,22,93,1)));
background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, rgba(255,142,190,1), rgba(188,22,93,1));
font-family: helvetica, calibri, sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
font-weight: bold;
line-height: 20px;
text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px rgba(99,99,99,0.5);
-moz-border-radius: 0.3em;
-moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
-webkit-border-radius: 0.3em;
-webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 2px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
padding: 6px 18px;
border: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.4);
margin: 0;
}
I can get the space removed using the 'float: left/right' property but its bugging me as to why I cannot achieve the same effect by just using the display property.
