width: 148px; /*drop it below content*/
}
ul#menu li {;
border-bottom: 1px solid #000;
}
ul#menu li a {
}
first off i know i shouldn't set the width of a non-floated element (ul#menu) after a floated one (div#content)... the margin-right worked fine...
my goal is to have the ul#menu li a set to a specific width and height and make use of display: block so my link can be the whole box, not just the text... but with it like this i am finding it hard to do...
also since the container is set to 648px does that mean everything in it (example the h1 will have to have a width of 648px, and then drop down to 643px with the padding-right set to 5px?)
