Preventing menu items from moving on focus

Question

I have created this mobile hamburger menu and I tried setting some padding in order to add some space between the text and the borders.

Here's the HTML:

#menu-solutions:hover .menu-item-text,
#menu-solutions:focus .menu-item-text,
#menu-solutions:active .menu-item-text {
  border-bottom: 2.11px solid #61f6ff;
  border-top: 2.11px solid #61f6ff;
  padding: 5px;
}

<div class="elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated">
  <div class="elementor-widget-wrap">
    <div data-id="da3c1dd" class="elementor-element elementor-element-da3c1dd elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer" data-element_type="spacer.default">

So basically now when the user presses one of the links, the text moves a bit down. I want the text to remain at the same spot and not move on focus. Which CSS attribute should I add?

You can inspect the website in the following link if needed (it only happens on mobile's menu): here's a link to the website.

Answer 1

Try adding this rule to your css:

#menu-solutions  .menu-item-text {
    box-sizing:border-box;
}

Also, why do you add a padding:5px on the hover/focus/active? Can you try removing that like this:

#menu-solutions:hover .menu-item-text, #menu-solutions:focus .menu-item-text, #menu-solutions:active .menu-item-text {
    border-bottom: 2.11px solid #61f6ff;
    border-top: 2.11px solid #61f6ff;
}

Answer 2

Normal text has to have the same spacing styles and border transparent:

#menu-solutions .menu-item-text {
  border-bottom: 2.11px solid transparent; 
  border-top: 2.11px solid transparent;    
  padding: 5px;
}
