    Hello,

    I need some advice on how to make my navigation buttons overlap that they are slightly touching. I currently have them in a unordered list. Any help is appreciated. Here is the link to the home page

    Here is my CSS

    ul.HorizontalButtons {
    margin-left: 0px;
    padding-left: 0px;
    }
    ul.HorizontalButtons li {
    display: inline;
    background-color: #;
    border-style: outset;
    border-width: 0px;
    margin: 2px;
    padding: 0px
    }
    ul.HorizontalButtons li a {
    text-decoration: none
    }
    ul.HorizontalButtons li a:hover {
    background-color: #D0D0D0
    }


    body {

    background-color: #E0E0C2;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-position: center top;
    }

    body, th, td, input, textarea, select, option {
    text-transform: capitalize;

    give the <ul> and <li> style="margin: 0; padding: 0;"
    and arrange your image to be the exact size of it's contents. because it has a border around it and it will never touch.
