Just started using twitter-bootstrap and I'm trying to customize the navbar by removing borders and padding, adding a hover effect for links with a different background color, and setting margins of about 10px on the left and right. However, I'm having trouble getting the margins to work properly.
Here's my code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Bootstrap Case</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

</head>
<body>
<style>
.navbar-default {

.nav.navbar-nav.navbar-right li a {
