assuming this isn't a graphic, you just need to set the a: pseudoclasses in your CSS for the list <li> selector:

Code:

      a:link,a:visited
		{
		display:block;
		color:white;
		background-color:black;
		text-align:center;
		padding:4px;
		text-decoration:none;
		text-transform:uppercase;
		}
		a:hover,a:active
		{
		background-color:white;
                color:gray;
		}

for example. But personally I'm not sure that grey-on-white works. Maybe a darker grey?
