I'm creating tiled nav and what I need is for a to fill the tile, but the text from a still be located at bottom right position. However, when I make it width:100% and height:100% (in relation to li), the text jumps to top left of the area. I know why this happens, I think I understand the whole idea, what I don't know is how to force it to jump back to bottom right while still filling the tile.
Here's the code:
#menu {
width: 900px;
float: right;
display: block;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#menu ul{
list-style:none;
display: block;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#menu ul li{
display:inline-block;
width: 146.5px;
height: 146.5px;
background-color: #1BA1E2;
position: relative;
}
#menu ul li a{
text-decoration: none;
color: #fff;
display: block;
padding-right:5px;
padding-top:5px;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
and the html:
<div id="menu">
<ul>
<li><a href="#">pies</a></li>
<li><a href="#">kot</a></li>
<li><a href="#">czołg</a></li>
<li><a href="#">ryba</a></li>
<li><a href="#">yea</a></li>
<li><a href="#">umc</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
Make your li
display: table-cell
instead of inline-block;
and use vertical-align: bottom
#menu ul li {
width: 146.5px;
height: 146.5px;
background-color: #1BA1E2;
position: relative;
vertical-align: bottom;
display:table-cell;
text-align: right;
border: 1px solid #000;
}
Note: Your CSS is lil messy so clean up a bit
