I want to center the text on each button in a menu I made, but with "text-align:center;" the button texts gets in the center of the MENU instead of in the center of each button. I feel like I've tried everything. What is the answer here?
ul.sdt_menu{
margin:0;
padding:0;
list-style: none;
font-family:Lato, verdana, "times new roman";
font-size:14px;
width:520px; }
ul.sdt_menu a{
text-decoration:none;
outline:none; }
ul.sdt_menu li{
float:left;
width:100px;
height:55px;
position:relative;
cursor:pointer; }
ul.sdt_menu li > a{
position:absolute;
top:-1px;
left:-20px;
width:100px;
height:67px;
z-index:12;
background:transparent url(../img/overlay2.png) no-repeat bottom right;
-moz-box-shadow:0px 0px 2px #000;
-webkit-box-shadow:0px 0px 2px #000;
box-shadow:0px 0px 2px #000; }
ul.sdt_menu li a img{
border:none;
position:absolute;
width:0px;
height:0px;
bottom:0px;
left:85px;
z-index:100;
-moz-box-shadow:0px 0px 4px #000;
-webkit-box-shadow:0px 0px 4px #000;
box-shadow:0px 0px 4px #000; }
ul.sdt_menu li span.sdt_wrap{
position:absolute;
top:20px;
left:4px;
width:170px;
height:60px;
z-index:15; }
ul.sdt_menu li span.sdt_active{
position:absolute;
background:#111;
top:65px;
width:100px;
height:0px;
left:0px;
z-index:14;
-moz-box-shadow:0px 0px 4px #000 inset;
-webkit-box-shadow:0px 0px 4px #000 inset;
box-shadow:0px 0px 4px #000 inset; }
ul.sdt_menu li span span.sdt_link, ul.sdt_menu li span span.sdt_descr, ul.sdt_menu li div.sdt_box a{
margin-left:20px;
text-transform:none;
text-shadow:1px 1px 1px #000; }
ul.sdt_menu li span span.sdt_link{
color:#fff;
font-size:20px; font-family: Lobster, "Arial Black", Gadget, sans-serif; text-shadow: 3px 3px 2px #000;
float:left;
clear:both; }
ul.sdt_menu li span span.sdt_descr{
color:#1f051e;
float:left;
clear:both;
width:155px;
font-size:12px; font-family: Lato, verdana, "times new roman";
letter-spacing:1px; }
ul.sdt_menu li div.sdt_box{
display:block;
position:absolute;
width:170px;
overflow:hidden;
height:170px;
top:85px;
left:0px;
display:none;
background:#000; }
ul.sdt_menu li div.sdt_box a{
float:left;
clear:both;
line-height:30px;
color:#871b4c; }
ul.sdt_menu li div.sdt_box a:first-child{
margin-top:15px; }
ul.sdt_menu li div.sdt_box a:hover{
color:#fff; }
And here's the HTML:
<ul id="sdt_menu" class="sdt_menu">
<li>
<a href="index.html">
<img src="img/andrea.jpg" alt=""/>
<span class="sdt_active"></span>
<span class="sdt_wrap">
<span class="sdt_link">Home</span>
<span class="sdt_descr">Andrea</span>
</span>
</a>
</li> <li>
<a href="gallery.html">
<img src="img/mywork2.jpg" alt=""/>
<span class="sdt_active"></span>
<span class="sdt_wrap">
<span class="sdt_link">Portfolio</span>
<span class="sdt_descr">My work</span>
</span>
</a>
</li> <li>
<a href="contact.html">
<img src="img/contact2.jpg" alt=""/>
<span class="sdt_active"></span>
<span class="sdt_wrap">
<span class="sdt_link">Contact</span>
<span class="sdt_descr">Email me</span>
</span>
</a>
</li> </ul>
