Button Vertical Menu

Author: Dynamic Drive

By giving each menu link a ridge border with contrasting top/left and right/bottom background colors, the result is a slightly beveled button menu.

Demo:

The CSS:

<style type="text/css">

.buttonmenu{
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 180px;
}

.buttonmenu li a{
color: white;
display: block;
width: 100%;
padding: 2px 4px;
text-decoration: none;
font-weight: bold;
border: 1px solid;
border-color:#D5BFD0 #5A3A54 #5A3A54 #D5BFD0; /*light dark dark light*/
background-color: #704968;
text-decoration:none;
}


.buttonmenu li a:visited{
color: white;
}

.buttonmenu li a:hover, .buttonmenu li a:active{
color: black;
background-color: #CDB4C8;
}

</style>

The HTML:

<ul class="buttonmenu">
<li><a href="http://www.dynamicdrive.com/">Dynamic Drive</a></li>
