Reposition Text

Recommended Posts

Hi, I have a unordered list containing 6 list items, each consisting of a different background image. How to I reposition the text so it is 5px from the left and 5px down?

 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
.names a
{
  WIDTH: 61px;
  HEIGHT: 22px;
  DISPLAY: block;
  BACKGROUND: url(image.bmp) no-repeat;
}
</head>

<body>
<div id="container">
  <ul id="people">	
    <li class="names"><a href="/">George</a></li>
    <li class="names"><a href="/">David</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>
</body>
</html>
