given the code below, how is the text positioned within the containers?
I've tried inserting margin-left values in every one of the divs below, and the only result is that the entire menu moves to the right!

I thought it might be #navlist, but that governs the position of the whole thing, too. this code is taken from:

thank you in advance!
