nav links in a div tag

I have created a horizontal navigation using text links with pipes dividing them using the tag. I have given them style in the external css sheet. These work perfectly well.

My question is whether there is any real need to use the list coding method to achieve the same thing other than this is the "correct" way to code a horizontal navigation list.

I have stipulated 12px as a font size as I am using a fixed layout.

I'm new to this stuff and wonder if there is an argument for there being less code in doing the nav links my way than in using the ul way.

I cannot see how things could break doing the links my way unless there is something I am not aware of?

Opinions please?

I believe you have done it the right way, using CSS with a horziontal list is wrong, lists are made (were designed) to list items vertically. Using horziontal lists is an abuse

My latest site uses horizontal links like: link | link | link. I did it in a , but on the page. I used links.
Whatever works!. Smiling
