Horizontal CSS Lists

When I first started working with lists, I made a really cool vertical list with a width and height, a separation below each list item, a background and a border for each item, put a link in each one, a hover effect over the rectangular area as well as the text link in each one. I was so proud.

Then a client asked me about controlling horizontal lists with CSS. Oh, I was just so knowledgeable that I was eager to show them the way. MAY DAY,,,,,,, MAY DAY WILL ROBINSON!!!!!

How can just one word, ruin everything. Vertical, Horizontal. My world was shattered. Terrible things happened.

Controlling a horizontal lists with CSS has a whole different set of rules than the vertical lists do. Trust me.
