Hello all. I'm building a CSS drop down menu and so far everything has gone spectacular! I've run into a small, yet noticeable, problem.

Here's the link: (see the edit). If you go to that page, you'll notice a bunch of links in a row. Now, if you hover over each of them, you'll notice that the text turns red. However, on the Site Map link, you can see a small space to its right. When you hover over that, the drop down is conjured.

So, here's the problem: that little space creates a spacing issue when I try to divide the menu up evenly. Is there any way to get rid of the space?

I've reduced the html to just show the navigation. Hopefully it's organized well enough for you, my dearest reader (and possible savior), to understand. Please post if you have any ideas about what is going on, or how I might fix it. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Don't you hate when you solve your own problems right after you post them? I figured out that if I delete the space between the link and <ul>, then the spacing is correct. Go figure. Hopefully this will be helpful to whoever has the same issue.

Funny how a simple space can affect a web design... and probably do something completely different in each web browser. :eek:
