I've just finished creating my first multi-level drop-down menu, but I'm encountering two white border issues. The first white border appears at the bottom of the menu and seems to be related to the padding of the a-elements. The specific area in the script has been highlighted below.
The second white border surrounds the drop-down menu with languages. Despite trying various alternatives, I haven't been able to find a solution for these problems yet.
Here is a preview of the menu:
#menu-1 {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
z-index: 999;
top: 0;
left: 0;
box-shadow: 0px 3px 8px -2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
}
#menu-1 .top-border {
background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);
padding-top: 1px;
}
#menu-1 .top-border .logo {
padding: 12px 15px;
width: auto;
height: 62px;
opacity: 0.8;
}
#menu-1 .top-border .contact-info {

margin-top: 25px;
margin-right: 12px;
