CSS3 menu with Example

In this article, you’ll learn how to create a good looking menu using CSS3.
First write your html structure in your body part as below.

HTML:
<div class="nav">
<ul>
  <li><a href="#"><span>Home</span></a></li>
  <li><a href="#"><span>Categories</span></a></li>
  <li><a href="#"><span>About</span></a></li>
  <li><a href="#"><span>Portfolio</span></a></li>
  <li><a href="#"><span>Contact</span></a></li>
</ul>
& then in your css page write fallowing css property:

.nav ul
{
 padding: 0;
 margin: 0;
 list-style: none;
}
