How to fill navbar height fully when I hover mouse pointer over a link? – Asp.net

Here I’m designing webpage for my personal project. I have this navbar added in my website, in which I wish to fill the links in navbar fully when I hover mouse pointer over those links. Here I have attached the screenshot of what I’m getting.

Marked in red ink is the section which I'm unable to fill.

The html code for navbar

<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-sm navbar-toggleable-sm navbar-light border-bottom box-shadow mb-3">
            <div class="container" style="overflow:auto">
                <a class="navbar-brand" asp-area="" asp-page="/Index">BookStore</a>
                <button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-bs-toggle="collapse" data-bs-target=".navbar-collapse" aria-controls="navbarSupportedContent"
                        aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
                    <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
                </button>
                <div class="navbar-collapse collapse d-sm-inline-flex justify-content-between">
                    <ul class="navbar-nav flex-grow-1">
                        <li class="nav-item">
                            <a class="nav-link text-dark" asp-area="" asp-page="/Index">Home</a>
                        </li>
                        <li class="nav-item">
                            <a class="nav-link text-dark" asp-area="" asp-page="/Books/Index">Books</a>
                        </li>
                        <li class="nav-item">
                            <a class="nav-link text-dark" asp-area="" asp-page="/Privacy">Privacy</a>
                        </li>
                    </ul>
                </div>
            </div>
        </nav>

The CSS behind navbar:

html {
  position: relative;
  min-height: 100%;
  margin: 0;
}

body {
  background-color: #cccccc;
  margin: 0;
  /*margin-bottom: 60px;*/
}

nav {
    background-color: #8080ff;
    margin: 0px;
    position: absolute;
}

.navbar-nav {
    height: 100%;
    margin: 0;
}

Note: I’m designing the web app using ASP.NET in Visual Studio 2022.

Tried to change margin properties of nav class, body class, html class. Tried to set height property to 100%. But nothing worked!!

    You should set padding to 0px for the nav element:

    nav {
  background-color: #8080ff;
  margin: 0px;
  position: absolute;
  padding: 0px !important;
}

    This is the answer for "what does !important mean?"

    The !important rule in CSS is used to add more importance to a property/value than normal.

    In fact, if you use the !important rule, it will override ALL previous styling rules for that specific property on that element!

    example:

    #id {
  background-color: blue;
}

.class {
  background-color: gray;
}

p {
  background-color: red !important;
}

    OR it will prioritize the CSS property. !important have the most priority than anything.
