This is only my second CSS site. my CSS for the menu (so far) is this: /*Menu Navigation*/ ul#menu { list-style-type: none; padding-left: 0; margin-left:0; } *html ul.menu a { height: 1px; } #menu li { display: inline; } #menu a { display: block; border-top: 1px solid #000; padding: .25em; margin-right: 1em; background-color: #67A15C; text-decoration: none; color: #fff; } #menu a:hoover { background-color: #F4D455; color: #000; } My question. Upon hoover I don't see any change in background or font color. Why?
