 * I’m getting ready to launch another WP site but am having a problem with the 
   codes! The site can currently be viewed here: [http://jonssonsstockdogs.com/new/index.html](http://jonssonsstockdogs.com/new/index.html)
 * As you can see, I’m having problems with the menu/navigations and after working
   with it the last couple of days I’m getting furious at myself… I simply can’t
   find the bug in the CSS code which makes the text get out of place…
 * The CSS codes: [http://jonssonsstockdogs.com/new/style.css](http://jonssonsstockdogs.com/new/style.css)
   
   The HTML codes: [http://jonssonsstockdogs.com/new/index.html](http://jonssonsstockdogs.com/new/index.html)
 * I’m going to center the menu but I know how to do that… What I need help with
   is to figure out how to get the menu, hover etc. in it’s spot. Right now it looks
   like it’s been “padded” out of place…
 * Please, can anyone help me get this fixed so I can upload my new theme to my 
   site… Thanks! Silja

 * The file path and source code doesn’t look like a WordPress site.
 * For general CSS questions, try CSS forum, you will get faster help and more details
   on the subject.

 * From what I see via Firebug, the ul doesn’t have CSS applied so it’s using browser’s
   default which is normal for ul to have margin and that’s the padding that you
   see.
 * To fix this just declare your own in the CSS like this
 *     ```
       #navigation > ul { margin: 0; }
       ```

 * Thank you dear @paulwpxp for your assistance and help! I much appreciate it! 
   I know that as of right now, the codes are not fitted for WP… I always start 
   with building my layouts on DW before I upload it to WP…
 * Anyway,
    Your code truly helped me! Again, thank you!! …but I’ve still got a 
   small issue. Your code got the menu in place vertically, but as you’ll see, it’s
   still a 40px padding on the left that’s bothering me… If I center the menu from
   this point, it’s not gonna look pretty… I guess I could fix a padding on the 
   right – but this would be an annoying fix…
 * I bet that by now y’all have figured out that I’m just getting started to learn
   CSS and HTML codes, and truly, I appreciate all the help y’all are giving me.
   Kindest regards, Silja

 * [@silja-jonsson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/silja-jonsson/) I’m glad
   you got it working 🙂
 * Anyway, when you done with the design and move on to transfering it to a WordPress
   theme, there will be quite a lot of adjustments needed.
 * Web developer tool is your friend. It’s used primarily to inspect the elements
   and get the right CSS selector.
 * Chrome built in web dev tool
    [https://developer.chrome.com/devtools](https://developer.chrome.com/devtools)
 * There is also Firefox one, and also Firefox addon called Firebug.
