html - Border-bottom 1px too long on both sides CSS -


what doing: on hover of button addding border-bottom of 5px.

js fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/mucnb/

problem:

the problem border bottom extends 1px far on both left , right side.

enter image description here

question:

does know how fix this?

relevant code:

#main-nav li { display: block; padding-top: 15px; text-align: center; height: 35px; font-size: 18px; line-height: 18px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; background-color: #00a0c8; }  #main-nav li a:first-child, #main-nav li a:nth-child(2) { width: 224px; border-right: 1px solid #ffffff; }  #main-nav li a:nth-child(3) { width: 225px; }  #main-nav li a:last-child { width: 224px; border-left: 1px solid #ffffff; }  #main-nav  a:hover { height: 30px; border-bottom: 5px solid #0bc6f5; } 

since css borders 'miter' @ edges, you're going notice phenomenon. work around this, i've created rules highlight li behind a on hover. creates effect getting clean border @ bottom. can retain white separators between elements then.

css

* {   margin: 0px;   padding: 0px;   outline: none; }  #header {   background-color: #00a0c8;   min-height: 118px; }  #headercontent {   width: 980px;   min-height: 118px;   margin: 0 auto;   background-color: #00a0c8; }  nav {   width: 980px;   margin: 0 auto; }  nav li {   border-left: 1px solid #fff; /* added border nav li */   display: block;   float: left;   height: 50px; /* give height */ }  #main-nav li:hover {   background: #0bc6f5; /* give background color li on hover */ }  nav li:first-child {   border-left: none; }  #main-nav li {   display: block;   padding-top: 15px;   text-align: center;   height: 35px;   font-size: 18px;   line-height: 18px;   color: #fff;   text-decoration: none;   background-color: #00a0c8; }  #main-nav li a:first-child, #main-nav li a:nth-child(2) {   width: 224px; }  #main-nav li a:nth-child(3) {   width: 225px; }  #main-nav li a:last-child {   width: 224px; }  #main-nav li a:hover {   height: 30px; }
