  <a href="#">Link 3</a>

  width: 200px; /* Set a width if you like */
}

.vertical-menu a {
  background-color: #eee; /* Grey background color */
  color: black; /* Black text color */
  display: block; /* Make the links appear below each other */
  padding: 12px; /* Add some padding */
  text-decoration: none; /* Remove underline from links */
}

.vertical-menu a:hover {
  background-color: #ccc; /* Dark grey background on mouse-over */
}

.vertical-menu a.active {
  background-color: #04AA6D; /* Add a green color to the "active/current" link */
  color: white;
}
