I am trying to design a simple header to a page in css. I planned to stack two divs on top of each other. The top one has many tabs and the bottom one is a plain solid single image div. But when rendering i see that an extra 5px is getting added to the the heights of both these divs. So i am not able to place the bottom on exactly on top of the other one.
There is a 5px bottom margin automatically. I tried negative margins, reset the global margins and paddings to zero. Still no use.
Heres the code.
<div class ="main_nav">
<div class="first_tab">
<img src ="images/startup/tab1_brown.png" height="25" width="90" alt="Temp" />
</div>
<div class = "ind_tab">
<img src ="images/startup/tab1_orange.png" height="25" width="90" alt="Temp"/>
</div>
<div class = "ind_tab">
<img src ="images/startup/tab1_brown.png" height="25" width="90" alt="Temp" />
</div>
</div>
<div class="lock">
<img src ="images/startup/divbg_new.png" alt="Temp" />
</div>
CSS:
*{ margin:0; padding:0; }
ul.master_navigation
{
font-size: 125%;
font-weight: bold;
text-align: center;
list-style: none;
margin: 0.5em 0;
padding: 0;
}
ul.master_navigation li
{
display: inline-block;
padding: 0 1%;
}
a
{
color: #08f;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: none;
}
a:visited
{
color: #88f;
}
a:hover
{
color: #f00;
}
p
{
text-align: justify;
}
p.cent
{
text-align: left;
}
div.header
{
height: 200;
}
div.main_nav
{
display: inline-block;
height: 25;
width: 900;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
vertical-align: bottom;
}
div.first_tab
{
height: 25;
float: left;
}
div.ind_tab
{
height: 25;
float: left;
margin-left: -10px;
z-index: -5;
}
div.lock
{
margin-top: -100;
height: 91;
width: 900;
padding: 0;
margin: -5;
}
body {
width:900px;
max-width: 100%;
margin: auto;
padding: 0;
background-image:url(images/startup/bg_2.gif);
background-repeat:repeat-x;
}
.pad
{
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
