Menu Alignment

[Tomk]

Hi again,

I’m having some trouble aligning my menu the way I want it. I set the "Menu 1 Width" to 98.8% and the right side is just fine, but the left side is a different story. My url is http://www.tomkbuck.com, and you can see that the left side of the menu extends slightly too far, disrupting the white outline.

I’ve spent a long time playing with the menu’s css, but I can’t figure out exactly how to make this one specific change.

Here’s the CSS that I’ve modified so far:
#pixopoint_menu1 {
width:98.8%;
height:35px;
background:#fae800;
background-position:50% 0;
margin:0;}

Thanks again for your help!

What specifically is wrong with it? And how come you are using 98.8% instead of a fixed width in pixels or 100%?

Sorry for not being more specific. The problem I’m having is that there is a white outline that borders the site’s content and the menu is either a little too far to the left or appearing over it, so that the line is broken instead of running seamlessly around the content.

I’m using 98.8 because it worked for what I needed at the time and I’m not sure yet how to do it another (perhaps more correct) way. This is my first venture into the world of WordPress.

Since your site has a fixed width, you can just use a fixed width on the menu to fix it into position. If it is too far to the left, then you can apply a left margin or use relative positioning to realign it.
