Menu Five - css background image, button effect

The HTML

The HTML for this menu can be found on the menu index page.

CSS notes

Adjust the width & height for the menu background image size, change the line-height (highlighted in red) to match the height for vertically aligning the text.

Change the background: url(path/file.gif) 0 0 no-repeat; to the path and image file name you want loaded.

The background-position: -100px 0; shifts the x axis of the image on hover by 100px. Set it to your image width.

Change the #content to whatever your container id is.
