          margin-left: auto;

          padding-top: 0px;

          padding-right: 0px;

          padding-bottom: 0px;

          padding-left: 0px;

}

#nav li {

          background-color: rgb(0,0,255);

          text-align: center;

          display: block;

          float: left;

          width: 15%;

          padding: 10px;

          font-family: tahoma, geneva, sans-serif;

          text-transform: capitalize;

          margin-right: 5px;

          border: thin double rgb(255,0,0);

}

 

 

 

 

#article {          width: 500px;

          margin-right: auto;

          margin-left: auto;

          margin-top: 100px;

          height: 500px;

}

a:link {

          color: rgb(255,255,255);

}

a:hover {

          color: rgb(102,255,0);

}

</style>

</head>

 

 

<body>

<ul id="nav">

  <li><a href="index.html">home</a></li>

  <li><a href="about.html">about</a></li>

  <li><a href="portfolio.html">portfolio</a></li>

  <li><a href="location.html">location</a></li>

  <li><a href="contact.html">contact</a></li>

</ul>

<div id="article">

  <h1>location</h1>

  <p> </p>

  <p>contrary popular belief, lorem ipsum not random text. has roots in piece of classical latin literature 45 bc, making on 2000 years old. richard mcclintock, latin professor @ hampden-sydney college in virginia, looked 1 of more obscure latin words, consectetur, lorem ipsum passage, , going through cites of word in classical literature, discovered undoubtable source. lorem ipsum comes sections 1.10.32 , 1.10.33 of "de finibus bonorum et malorum" (the extremes of , evil) cicero, written in 45 bc. book treatise on theory of ethics, popular during renaissance. first line of lorem ipsum, "lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes line in section 1.10.32.</p>

</div>

</body>

</html>

use clear: both; below instead of margin-top: 100px; i've commented out /* */

 

 

#article {  

width: 500px;

margin-right: auto;

margin-left: auto;

clear: both;

/* margin-top: 100px; */

height: 500px;

}

 

whenever use 'float' attribute have <li> tags need 'clear' floats following elements in case 'article' container gets put correct html flow.
