Use div and set float:left and apply padding.

<div id="menuOption" >
    <div style="float:left; padding-left:5px"><a href="www.google.com"><font color="#0000" >Home</font></a></div>
<div style="float:left; padding-left:5px"><a href="./download.html"><font color="#0000" >About</font></a></div>
<div style="float:left; padding-left:5px"> <a href="./purchase.html"><font color="#0000" >Picture</font></a></div>
</div>

Just add &nbsp;

<div id="menuOption" >
   <a href="www.google.com"><font color="#FFFFFF" >Home</font></a>&nbsp;
   <a href="./download.html"><font color="#FFFFFF" >About</font></a>&nbsp;
   <a href="./purchase.html"><font color="#FFFFFF" >Picture</font></a>&nbsp
</div>

Or better use <ul> and make <li> display: inline-block; and use padding

<ul>
  <li>Home</li>
  <li>About</li>
  <li>Pictures</li>
</ul>

CSS

ul li {
   display: inline-block;
   padding: 5px 8px; 
   /* Change this according to your requirement, 
   5px is top, bottom and 8px is left, right */
}

Note: <font> tag is deprecated, use CSS color property instead
