Question

i have the following css code:

.tag {     display: inline;     font-size: 10px;     padding: 5px;     color: #FFF;     background-color: #444; }  .tag:hover {     font-size: 10px;     padding: 5px;     color: #FFF;     background-color: #666; } 

aside from the background color, and one having the display:inline, there is no difference, correct? Well when the .tag div comes into existance, it has white text but no background color. it also has a 12pt font size and no padding. however, it looks perfectly the way its supposed to when I hover over it. Can anyone tell me why its doing this?
