    CSS: Top Secret Classification - Creating a Menu


    (Page 4 of 4 )

    In this example we create a menu bar (with nifty rollover action) using float:


    <html>

    <head>

    <style type="text/css">

    ul

    {

    float:left;

    width:100%;

    padding:0;

    margin:0;

    list-style-type:none;

    }

    a

    {

    float:left;

    width:6em;

    text-decoration:none;

    color:white;

    background-color:black;

    padding:0.2em 0.6em;

    border-right:1px solid white;

    }

    a:hover {background-color:blue}

    li {display:inline}

    </style>

    </head>

    <body>

    <ul>

    <li><a href="http://www.devshed.com">Home</a></li>

    <li><a href="http://www.devshed.com">Diets</a></li>

    <li><a href="http://www.devshed.com">Equipment</a></li>

    {

    padding:0.5em;

    background-color:black;

    clear:left;

    }

    h1.header

    {

    padding:0;

    margin:0;

    }

    div.left

    {

    float:left;

    width:160px;
