Re: text-indent

Try adding a li into the rule:-

#language ul li a { text-indent: -5000px; }

Re: text-indent

OK, I think I’ve found your problem. Try setting text-align: left; so that it has a reference to what the text is being indented from.

#language ul li a {
     text-indent: -5000px; 
     text-align: left;
}
