    Anchor Styling ... Could someone please help me with this?

    Hello,

    I am applying a style to a anchor tag. This anchor is created by an
    ASP.NET page and is inside a list item.
    I know the style is working because I applied it to the anchor in a
    page that has only this.

    .Test
    {
    background-color: #101010;
    color: #E2E2E2;
    padding: 4px 10px 6px 12px;
    text-decoration: none;
    font: normal 1.2em Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
    }

    <a href="Test.aspx " class="Test">Te sting</a>

    However, when I apply it to the anchor inside the list item I don't
    get the bottom margin unless I add "display: block" to the style! But
    then the background is extended 100%.

    I don't know what is going on. I tried everything I could think off.
    Here is the code where the Test style is giving me problems:
    ....
    <li>
    <label for="tbMessage" id="lMessage">M ensagem<span
    class="Required ">*</span></label>
    <textarea name="tbMessage " rows="4" cols="20" id="tbMessage"> </
    textarea>
    </li>
    <li>
    <a id="lbSubmit" class="Test"
    href='javascrip t:WebForm_DoPos tBackWithOption s(new
    WebForm_PostBac kOptions("ctl00 $ctl00$cphSite$ cfSendContact$l bSubmit",
    "", true, "ContactFor m", "", false, true))'>
    Send
    </a>
    </li>
    </ul>

    Any idea why this is happening?

    All I am trying to do is to make my anchor look as a simple button.

    Thank You,
    Miguel

    I found the problem. Since I want to place the inputs in different
    lines then the labels associated to them I added a display: block to
    each label through CSS. When I do this somehow the <atag gets not
    bottom padding ... have any idea why this is happening?

    Thanks,
    Miguel
