Yigit, as a follow-up to scottlanin’s question:

Is there any way to code this so that there is not an extra divider to the left of the first link or to the right of the last link? In other words, if you just use border-left or border-right, you always have a leftover divider that is dangling on the left or right side. Can that be eliminated?

Thanks in advance for any further help you could offer on this topic.
