vertical alignment of text?

Hi,

I am experimenting with a roll-over but am struggling to get the text to
align, vertically, in the middle:

#sidebar a:link, #sidebar a:visited {
border: 1px solid #7A95CA;
display: block;
height: 30px;
text-decoration: none;
color: #7A95CA;
padding: 0px 6px 0px 14px;
}

#sidebar a:hover, #sidebar a:active {
border: 1px solid #7A95CA;
height: 30px;
text-decoration: underline;
color: #FFFFFF;
padding: 0px 6px 0px 14px;
background-color: #7A95CA;
}

I have set the height to 30px, but the text appears to be aligning to the
"top" by default.
I've tried adding:
vertical-align: middle;
....but this isn't working.

Any ideas?

Also, is there anywhere on the web I could access a chart of CSS commands?
Thanks.
Nath.
