Add some padding to the body element, so page content doesn??™t hug the browser
window edges. Also, add the background-color pair shown following:
body {
font: 62.5%/1.5 Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
padding: 20px;
background-color: #aaaaaa;
}
3. Style the list. Add the following rule to remove the
default bullet points from unordered lists within the navigation
div, define a width for the lists, and also set the
default font style.
#navigation ul {
list-style-type: none;
width: 140px;
font: 1.2em/1 Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
4. Set an override for nested lists. As you can see from the
previous image, the nested links have much larger text.
This is because font sizes in ems are inherited, and therefore
the font size within the nested lists ends up at
1.2ems multiplied by 1.2ems. By adding the following
rule, the font size of nested lists is reset to 1em, making
nested lists look the same as top-level lists.
#navigation ul ul {
font-size: 1em;
}
5. Style the buttons. Use a contextual selector to style links within the navigation div
(i.e., the links within this list). These styles initially affect the entire list, but you??™ll
later override them for level-two links. Therefore, the styles you??™re working on now
are intended only for level-one links (which are for sections or categories). This
first set of property/value pairs turns off the default link underline, sets the list
items to uppercase, and defines the font weight as bold.
