<a> element properties not working

why text-indent, height and width parameters not working with my <a> element here ( “order” link with background image) ?
and ie 6.0 doesn’t show that element at all

my css:

a.telli{
background:transparent url(/images/18.gif) no-repeat center center;
margin: 0;
padding:0 20px;
text-indent: -5000px;
height:18px;
width:50px;
}

Re: <a> element properties not working

try adding display:block. inline elements can’t have height or width.

Re: <a> element properties not working

The text-align: right; doesn’t work, because you assigned display:block; to a.telli. That gives it a fixed width.

I suggest you give the h6 a dotted bottom-border, and you assign float:right; instead of text-align:right; to p.tellimine. That way, a.telli can keep its display:block;.

That should give the lay-out you’re trying to accomplish.
