# Optimize HTML breaks hover style

* Hovering on my main nav menu is affected by the Autoptomize “Optimize HTMl setting.”
I have confirmed it is this setting and I can’t figure out what I can do to avoid
this. The hover effect for submenu items is a teal box that is centered but when
I select optimize HTML what happens is the box is off-center to the right. Any
suggestions to fix this? I have it currently set to optimize html code so you
can see this.

* Best,
Matt

* OK, I see, but I can’t reproduce on your site (tried Firefox & Chrome).

* Did you change anything? Or are you looking in another browser? Are you logged
when testing and if so can you log out to compare?

* Sorry about that. One of my employees unchecked the setting I am taking about.
You should see it now. I’m using chrome and it shows whether or not we are logged
in.

* I can confirm it is happening, but I don’t see what in the optimized HTML would
be causing this I’m afraid. You could either turn off HTML optimization (it is
by far the least important one) or you could use a workaround like
* ```
.genesis-nav-menu .sub-menu a {
margin-right: 5px !important;
}
```

* What does the optimized html do? Basically minify it right? How could that do
this. I’ve been staring at it for a long time and inspecting it. Any other ideas?

* optimizing, for HTML, indeed is just minifying i.e. removing redundant whitespace
and linefeeds. did the staring-thing myself but no other ideas I’m afraid.
