How to make coloured buttons in bootstrap navbar? – Twitter bootstrap

I want to have a big red “Donate” button with white text in the navber, and my solution was <a href="#" class="btn btn-danger">Donate Now</a>. However, the button seems to turn transparent on hover.

I’ve also tried <span class="label label-danger">Danger</span> and <p class="btn btn-danger">Donate Now</p>, but the former is too small, while the latter seems strange on hover.

<head>
  <title>
    Test
  </title>
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <!-- Bootstrap -->
  <link href="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/twitter-bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
  <link href="/static/knowledge/index.css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>

<body>
  <div class="header">
    <nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-static-top">
      <div class="container-fluid">
        <div class="navbar-header">
          <button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbar" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="navbar">
            <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
            <span class="icon-bar"></span>
            <span class="icon-bar"></span>
            <span class="icon-bar"></span>
          </button>
        </div>
        <div id="navbar" class="navbar-collapse collapse">
          <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
            <li>
              <a href="#" class="btn btn-danger">Donate Now</a>
            </li>
          </ul>
        </div>
        <!--/.nav-collapse -->
      </div>
    </nav>
  </div>
</body>

In case my problem cannot be reproduced by the code above, I also created this fiddle.

  <p>In this example, the navigation bar is hidden on small screens and replaced by a button in the top right corner (try to re-size this window).
  <p>Only when the button is clicked, the navigation bar will be displayed.</p>

    You’ve used a label in your fiddle instead of a button. And you’re not supposed to use buttons where a Navigation link belongs, but you’re able to bypass this with a simple wrapper.

    <li>
    <span>
       <a class="btn btn-danger btn-lg">Donate Now</a>
    </span>
</li>
