in my navigation bar i have this code.

<div id="aboutnav"><a class="hl" href="#"><h2>about\a</h2></a></div>

all the div does in the case is put the text in position and in the a.hl it’s –

a.hl{

background-color:#000;

    This is because in HTML4/XHTML you can’t nest hx elements into a! Try using this instead:

    <div id="aboutnav"><h2><a class="hl" href="#">about\a</a></h2></div>
    

    I think you would need to update your css in a similar way:

    a.hl{
          display:block;
          background-color:#000;
          text-decoraction:none;
          color:#fff;    
    }
