Having set up the rest of the page, we're ready to tackle our navigation. We can see it in Figure 7.4, sitting there as an unordered list wedged between the title and main content. Frankly, it's rather ugly, and it's up to us to fix it.
There are two ways to take a list and make it into a horizontal set of links. One is to make the list items inline, and the other is to float them. The two approaches both have benefits and drawbacks, but one of the major benefits of the floating approach is that it lets us create graphically beautiful buttons that work in modern browsers—as well as Internet Explorer!
