Question

I am creating these icons as an image wrapped with a CSS circle behind it. Yet, this random bit of hair looks like it is stemming from the CSS.

Any explanations why? Sorry the CSS is all inline – this is for an html email:

<div style="width: 180px; text-align: center;margin: 0 auto;">
<a href="http://pinterest.com/houseplansdan/">
<li style="list-style: none; background-color: #505050;width: 40px;height: 40px;border-radius: 20px; display: inline-block;margin-right: 10px;">
<img style="padding-top: 5px;"src="http://homeplan.com/newsletter/October/img/icons/32x32_pinterest.png" href="http://pinterest.com/houseplansdan/">
</li>
</a>

<li style="background-color: #505050;width: 40px;height: 40px;border-radius: 20px; display: inline-block; margin-right: 10px;">
<img style="padding-top: 5px;"src="http://homeplan.com/newsletter/October/img/icons/32x32_facebook.png">
</li>
</a>    

<a href="http://twitter.com/houseplans_">
<li style="list-style: none; background-color: #505050; width: 40px;height: 40px;border-radius: 20px; display: inline-block;">
<img style="padding-top: 5px;"src="http://homeplan.com/newsletter/October/img/icons/32x32_twitter.png">
</li>
</a>  
</div>​

Fiddle version here.

Answer 1

There cannot be an LI inside an A. Please correct it, if possible.

Also, this CSS will fix:

a { text-decoration: none; }​
