CSS / HTML Assistance

Hello,

I've been trying to code a navigation I designed a while back for a couple hours now and I can't quite get it right. Can someone help me out with this?

I'm having issues getting this to function properly in MSIE and Firefox.

The first link "Control Panel Home" is the state when a tab is active, the "Account Settings" is the state when a tab is hovered and the other state is when tabs aren't selected or hovered.

Look forward to any assistance you can provide. Thank you much! :)

You basically need to set a background image for your links that changes depending on the mouse event. So for a:hover you would use the background image of the white link state... for just the a you would have the green background image... and for the currently open page you would need to apply the style in the link above with a separate background image. Do you have a link to your page?

I like your navigation by the way, it looks very professional

Thank you very much for the advice, I'm going to apply it. Originally I wanted to make the width's liquid with the text in size, but I feel a fixed background will be much easier and more effective.

Thanks for your kind comments towards the design :)
