I know I have gotten past this this before a long time ago but I can't seem to recall what I did. The text in the the buttons for the vertical spry menu bar can be aligned horizontally with text-align but I've tried to vertically align and have gotten nothing using the vertical align. I'm wondering if there is a property I need to define first or if I'm just being an idiot and missing it entirely. It is an update for www.eauclairetowing.com using a vertical spry menu bar not unlike the one currently on there.
I see your answers. I am currently at work but will try them on my lunch break. This site is going to be my new found love :D
Use padding-top like you've done in the current site:
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a {
padding-top:0.5em
}
