I'm coding this website as the final project for my HTMl course on freecodecamp and I'm running into two errors that I don't know how to fix. On one hand, I have a little white line between my navigation bar and the first section. On the other hand, I use the hover selector to make the background of the navigation bar link gray but still keep a small dark line at the bottom.
The white line is as follows:
To fix the first white line, I tried removing the padding and margin (this removed some of the whitespace on the edges, but not the remaining whitespace between the two sections. I also changed all CSS backgrounds to blue color to find out which part fills the space, and it only turns blue when I change the background of the body, which already has margins and padding set to 0.
This is what the little black line looks like: As you can see, there is a small black line underneath the gray background!
For this, I tried to understand the exact space occupied by different tabs in the navigation bar (li, ul, a...) but to no avail, I really don't understand how these tabs decide to take up space or not in the navigation bar middle. I can't find any labels taking up extra black line space.
This is HTML:

This is CSS:
*, *::after, *::before { box-sizing: border-box; } body { width: 100%; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; } nav { display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: center; width: 100%; height: 40px; background-color: rgb(24,24,24); } nav ul { display: flex; justify-content: space-evenly; list-style-type: none; padding-left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0px; align-items: center; } nav li { display: inline-block; } li a { text-decoration: none; color: white; padding: 10px; } li a:hover { background-color: rgb(64,64,64); } #Who-Am-I { height: 100%; background-color: rgba(0,30,0,0.8); }
Thank you for your help!
