Vertical-Align ohne Funktion?

[nimble]

Hi

a.home {
  display:block;
  width:85px;
  height:23px;

line-height: 23px;

text-align:center;
  vertical-align:middle;
  color: #FFFFFF;
  text-decoration: none;
  font-family: verdana,sans-serif;
  font-style: normal;
  font-size: 7pt;
  font-weight: normal;
}
a.home:link    { background-color:#c4c4c4;}
a.home:visited { background-color:#c4c4c4;}
a.home:hover   { background-color:#a2795d;}
a.home:active  { background-color:#a2795d;}

und das Klappt wie es soll :-)
