font background color

[krraleigh]

I am using a bk image behind my links and for some reason there is a strip
that is sitting over the top and to the side of the image the same color as
the bgcolor of the cell.

Can you take a look at this and tell me what you think might be the problem?

my css code: // it has been validated

..navLeftParent {
padding-top: 40px;
}
..navLeft {
font-size: 1.1em;
font-weight:600;
background-image:url(../images/navBgButton.jpg);
background-repeat:no-repeat;
width: 157px;
height: 35px;
background-position:center;
background-color: #FEB80A;
}
..navLeft span{
position:relative;
left: 30px;
top: 6px;
background-color: #FEB80A;
}
..navLeft a:visited {
color: #994D4D;
text-decoration: none;
background-image:url(../images/navBgButton.jpg);
background-color: #FEB80A;
}
..navLeft a:link {
color: #994D4D;
text-decoration: none;
background-image:url(../images/navBgButton.jpg);
background-color: #FEB80A;
}
..navLeft a:hover {
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: underline;
background-image:url(../images/navBgButton.jpg);
background-color: #FEB80A;
}

any insight would be greatly appreciated
thank you

I see no strip in any of my browsers. I do see this sort of thing on
text enlargement:

And there is much that is badly broken, follow John Hosking's excellent
advice.

But I come for a different reason: I was pleased to see a real live case
of something that has been much discussed, the hitherto mythical case of
naming something with "left" that is on the right!

Your

..navLeft {

etc.
