Centering ul content in a div - html

I'm a visual designer, and new to CSS. I have hit a road block and am hoping you can help me sort it out!
I have some text and images in a ul which I want centered in a div no matter how the browser is resized. I am adding this code to an adaptive wordpress theme.
.clinCon {
height: 460px;
background: rgb(249, 255, 254); /* Old browsers */
background: -moz-linear-gradient(-45deg, rgba(249, 255, 254, 1) 0%, rgba(253, 253, 253, 1) 100%); /* FF3.6-15 */
background: -webkit-linear-gradient(-45deg, rgba(249, 255, 254, 1) 0%, rgba(253, 253, 253, 1) 100%); /* Chrome10-25,Safari5.1-6 */
background: linear-gradient(135deg, rgba(249, 255, 254, 1) 0%, rgba(253, 253, 253, 1) 100%); /* W3C, IE10+, FF16+, Chrome26+, Opera12+, Safari7+ */
filter: progid: DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr='#f9fffe', endColorstr='#fdfdfd', GradientType=1); /* IE6-9 fallback on horizontal gradient */
border-bottom-left-radius: 5px;
border-bottom-right-radius: 5px;
}
.clinCon > ul {
list-style-type: none;
padding: 33px 0px 0px 0px;
position: relative;
font-size: 22px;
letter-spacing: 0.05em;

}
.clinCon img {

How can I get my navigation to be 100% height of the header?

I have a header div and inside of it, I have a nav with a ul where the list items are displayed horizontally.
I want these list items to be 100% the height of the header.
I have tried putting height: 100% on the nav, the ul, li, and in the a but nothing works.
How can I make my navigation 100% the height of the header?
Here is a jsFiddle to show you what I mean.
Here's my CSS:

Horizontal navbar menu submenu alignment

In the following code, I am creating a navigation bar. When you hover on an item in the navbar, it displays a drop down menu. Certain items on the drop down menu display a submenu when hovered. All this is working, but when the submenu displays, I am having issues with the positioning of its top property. I have tried making its' parent div position:relative, adjusting it's top: position, adjusting the display property, etc., but can't seem to locate the problem.

Where the > shows the drop down item that contains sub menu options.
I made a small change on the .dropdown selector and now it's working:
.dropdown {
position: relative;
float: left;
clear: both;
width: 100%;
}

Hope it helps!
The issue has to do with your display property of your .dropdowns.
if you set the display property to inline-block on those <div>s they should render more correctly. You may have to add width: 100% to your .dropdown CSS and reduce the white space in between each menu item by adding font-size: 0 to .navtwo css, but it works:
Also, Ignacio's float solution, does pretty much the same thing.
Display: block for those <div>s is the problem. floating or displaying as inline is your best solution

CSS transition not working but property change is working

I am currently developing a css for a website I will publish soon ,I took so much time in the navigation bar, I am trying to make a navigation bar without using images and make it fit into users screen, and after I done it, I have a problem, I want the sub list items to drop down smothley in 2 seconds instead of poping directly
this is the CSS and the HTML
I done the transition property in .nav ul li ul li and want it to change after 2 seconds in .nav ul li:hover ul li
be gentle on me, this is my first website that I am developing from scratch :)

Thank you all for the help and effort
it was small simple mistake mentioned by skube
I was using display with transition and that is invaild, it disables animation
so I used visible property with transition instead
visibility: hidden;
visibility: visible;
I changed some css properties in order for that to work, here is the css file after the fixes

How to have no border around a DIV

I have the following DIV in my page:
<div id="leftNavCustom" class="leftMenu">
<div class="menu-item">
<h4>Menu</h4>
<ul>
<li id="u"><a >Why Choose Us</a></li>
<li id="u"><a >Physicians</a></li>
<li id="u"><a >Medical Specialties</a></li>
<li id="u"><a >Locations</a></li>
<li id="u"><a >Urgent Care</a></li>
<li id="u"><a >Radiology</a></li>
<li id="u"><a >Lab</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
which creates a hover over menu expander.

By default it creates a big space around the menu as shown below:
The only way the menu comes out normal like I would like:
Is to add the following style to the above css file:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
But that makes some of my other DIVS on the page out of place. I tried adding margin and padding to every single code in my CSS but nothing works without adding the few lines shown above.
How do i modify my existing css code to fix it?
JSFIDDLE: http://jsfiddle.net/s2z6f/
Remove the margin from the specific elements that shouldn't have it (the h4 and the ul of .menu-item). You can do this rather than using * as the selector.
.menu-item h4, .menu-item ul {
margin: 0;
}

Try starting off with a CSS reset.

This will "zero out" all properties that individual browsers introduce automatically. It's generally a good practice if you're going to be writing a lot of custom styles.

How to improve the rendering of my HTML/CSS button?

I've achieved nearly the look that a want and I've removed the irrelevant html and I want to improve the look of the button.
I've created a fiddle for the button.
I think that the color is good (the blue) and the goal is to make the text render and a look that is more clear. How can the text look less blurry and with sharper contrast ? The CSS is
html {
height: 100%;
overflow-y: scroll;
}
body {
background-color: rgb(255, 255, 235);
font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;

Change the text shadow on #post a (And remove duplicate definitions) e.g.
#post a {
color: #FFF;
text-shadow: 1px 1px 2px #333;
font-size: 20px;
}
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/4u4T7/5/
The text shadow makes it appear a little off, have a mock about with the text shadow and if you're not sure then use something like a text shadow generator to see a real time preview but I'd recommend using inspect element since it's better in my opinion.
Background
Colorzilla's gradient genetor is very helpful and is browser friendly. though in IE8 and below wont be that High Definition looking.
http://www.colorzilla.com/gradient-editor/
Text
Use text-shadow: 0 2px 0 #f2f2f2;
text-shadow: a, b, c, [d], e;
where a = distance from the text vertically (e.g. 1px, 2px, 0, -1px)
b = distance from the text horizontally (e.g. 1px, 2px, 0, -1px)
c = the weight of how it spreads out / smudge out / blur out (e.g. 1px, 2px, 0, -1px) in your case use 0 because you dont want it blurry looking
d = optional. great use for inner borders
e = color of the shadow
try to read on more of that to understand the syntax
