I modified 3 different peoples code to make css arrows and I think I made it more complicated than it needs to be. Any CSS expert than can help me clean this up?
I can’t seem to modify padding and other attributes to get this where I want it within the divs.

My arrows display nicely but I am having difficulty adjusting the padding to 0. I’ve tried the #, the ul class, the il class and I am a bit baffled why I cannot remove the 10px (I believe its the padding).

There is also a faintly darker border on the left side of the triangular portion of the arrows, if you look closely, that I’d like to have match the color exactly.

I’m going backwards 🙂
