CSS - Creating A Menu Using - List
I'm trying to create a menu using 'list' but so far without much success :-(
Problems? Not displaying horizontally in browser. Can't center text in box. Adding 'padding' didn't work. Any help would be much appreciated, Mike P.S. Please ignore the colors ;-) //paste.pocoo.org/show/207718/ Please add http to the above - I'm not yet allowed to .. Similar TutorialsI'm trying to create an expanding menu using CSS and no Javascript. So far, it works only sometimes in IE, and only works in FF with the mouse button is pressed down (If I let go of the mouse button, it disappears). Can anyone suggest any fixes on what I should do to get it working properly. Thanks. So far what I have is this: Quote: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <link rel=stylesheet href="dd.css" type="text/css"> <title>Page title</title> </head> <body> <div id="links"> <a href="#">Links<span><br> Sublink 1<br> Sublink 2<br> </span></a> </div> <div id="links2"> <a href="#">Links 2<span><br> Sublink 3<br> Sublink 4<br> </span></a> </div> </body> </html> Quote: My CSS looks like this: div#links a span {display:none;} div#links a:active span {display:block; font:10px Verdana, sans-serif; } div#links2 a span {display:none;} div#links2 a:active span {display:block; font:10px Verdana, sans-serif; } I want to create a menu that will float on the side of my page and stay in the same position on the screen as the user scrolls down. Is this done with CSS, Javascipt, or a little bit of both? thanks. I have a menu where the submenu li's have a blue/darker blue background color and hover color. I have one set of submenu items where I would like to change the background and hover colors for that set only, but haven't been successful in writing the second set of code, the original colors still show up Here's the part of my styles for the list that I'm trying to change.. Code:
/* original backgrounds for the menu */
ul.menu li ul li a {
background: #ccc;
color: #000;
padding-left: 20px;
}
ul.menu li ul li a:hover {
background: #aaa;
border-left: 5px #000 solid;
padding-left: 15px;
}
Is it the way I tried to rename the style? Code:
/* change backgrounds to shades of green for one sub menu */
.green ul.menu li ul li a {
background: #afe4bf;
color: #000;
padding-left: 20px;
}
.green ul.menu li ul li a:hover {
background: #88b796;
border-left: 5px #000 solid;
padding-left: 15px;
}
thanks in advance for any help, Kathy Hi all, I'm trying to create a horizontal menu in CSS and each link has a background image. So I need an image to start the menu, the images for the buttons in the middle, and an image for the end of the menu. Code:
#topnav1 {
position: absolute;
height: 18px;
top: 43px;
left: 300px;
font-weight: bold;
}
#topnav1 ul {
margin:0; padding: 0;
width: 420px;
height: 18px;
display: inline;
}
#topnav1 #first li {
list-style-type: none;
display: inline;
background-image: url(../images/topnav1_1_bg.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: bottom left;
padding-left: 40px;
padding-bottom: 4px;
}
#topnav1 li {
display: inline;
background-image: url(../images/topnav1_2_bg.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: bottom left;
padding-left: 34px;
padding-bottom: 4px;
}
#topnav1 #last li {
display: inline;
background-image: url(../images/topnav1_3_bg.gif);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: bottom right;
padding-right: 10px;
padding-bottom: 4px;
}
First: It seems that as soon as I apply the 'display: inline; code to the 'li' tags, the browser completely ignores the height, width, and padding settings that I put on there. So the background image isn't being displayed properly. Second: I want to align the menu to the right of the page - how can I do this? Cheers! I am having problems with a horizontal list menu. If you take a look at the link below I'm trying to get the top picture, menu and the main content area to all line up vertically. http://www.willisemail.co.uk/skill/ I may be wrong but the list menu seems to be the problem as it never lines up. Any help would be great or a suggestion on how to go about this another way. Thanks Jemes html { padding:0px; margin:0px; } body { background-color: #F5F5F5; font-size: 12px; color: #564b47; text-align:center; margin:0px; padding:0px; } /* Site Holder Start */ #box { width: 750px; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #979696; background-color: #FFFFFF; background-image:url(../Images/mid.jpg); } /* Site Holder End */ /* Site Holder Start */ #box2 { margin-left: 49px; margin-right: 50px; margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; } /* Site Holder End */ /* Content Start */ #content { width: 461px; padding:0px; background-color:#FFF; overflow: hidden; } /* Content End */ /* Content Start */ #content2 { margin-left: 14px; margin-right: 15px; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom:0px; padding:0px; background-color:#FFF; overflow: hidden; } /* Content End */ /*Right Menu Start*/ #right { width: 178px; padding:0px; float:right; background-color:#FFF; overflow: auto; } /*Right Menu End */ .imgRight { text-align:center; margin-top: 10px; } .imgMain { text-align:center; margin-top:10px; border: 1px solid #979696; } .Menu { margin-top:10px; padding: 0px; } .Menu ul { padding: 0px; margin:0px; list-style-type:none; } .Menu li { display: inline; list-style-type:none; padding: 1px; margin:0px; } .Main { margin: 0px; border: 1px solid #979696; margin-top:8px; margin-bottom:10px; } I'm having troubles with a list menu. The first problem I have is that the menu options dont fill the whole of the menu but do in Firefox. The second problem is that the padding is different in IE and Firefox and I would like them to be the same. If anyone could help that would be great. http://departments.brooklands.ac.uk/wine/example/ Jemes Hi; I got two problem in my code. 1) a list of menu could not sit in the center. 2) a list menu has a gap from top in the Firefox, but there is not gap from top from IE browser. And in the IE Browser, the list of menu sit too hight on the top. How could i sit the list of menu in the center and there are about 1px gas or not gas between the top and the menu bar in IE and Firefox. my code as following; Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"

Hi Folks This is my first post here, hopefully I'll keep to etiquette I'm always ready to be corrected if I step out of line. Anyway, I have an unusual problem I can't seem to solve. I am making a menu with drop downs using lists, I have it working in my HTML editor (CoffeeCup). When I try to view it in Firefox or IE7 the sub lists show and push the tabs I made to the side. Here is the CSS I'm trying to use, some I've taken from tutorials, some of my own (which is where the problem possibly lies) Code: /*1. Taken from http://www.sohtanaka.com/web-design/liquid-color-adjustable-css-buttons/ with thanks */

font-size: 1em;
text-decoration: none;

}

Any help in where I've been going wrong would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Dave Hi, I'm trying to make a simple rollover menu with a <ul><li> list. Here's my stylesheet: Code: .navigation{
width:768px;
height:26px;
padding: 94px, 0px, 10px, 5px;
z-index:999;
}
.navigation ul.nav li {display:inline}
.navigation ul.nav li a.link: hover{
color:#fbe8be;
font-family:times, serif;
font-size: 14pt;
text-decoration:none;
}
.navigation ul.nav li a.link:active{
text-decoration:none;
color:#bac4a1;
font-family:times, serif;
font-size: 14pt;
}
And here's my XHTML: Code: <div class="navigation"> <ul class="nav"> <li><a href="index.php" class="link">Home</a></li> | <li><a href="ScopeofServices.php" class="link">Scope of Services</a></li> | <li><a href="BaselineFees.php" class="link">Baseline Fees</a></li> | <li><a href="BaslineProcedures.php" class="link">Baseline Procedures</a></li> | <li><a href="Qualifications.php" class="link">Qualification<a></li> | <li><a href="contact.php" class="link">Contact Us</a></li> | <li><a href="considerations.php" class="link">Key Considerations & Pre-Conditions</a></li> </ul> </div> Here's the page: http://www.caillouette.com/SelvanSite/index.php Can anyone tell me why my rollovers don't work? thanks - Hi, I am working on this website atm: www.powys.gov.uk I have a problem with the menu, the problem is when you scale the browser window and the menu links(on the left column) are forced to wrap, the indentation of the link isnt the same e.g: Code: My Menu Link Has been wrapped I want it to be like: Code: My Menu Link Has been Wrapped The problem only occurs in IE, it looks perfect in Mozilla, can anyone offer any help on how I might fix this? I am out of ideas. Regards, Graham I've been hit with a problem that I think isn't possible, but I'm hoping that someone else here might be able to offer some sort of solution. It's a bit complicated to explain, so I'll try and give as much detail as I can. I have a menu system set up on a site, and it's styled correctly for the way that one section works. It's a standard unordered list. FIRST MENU: Code: <ul>
<li>
<a href="page1.html">Link 1</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="page1.1.html">Link 1.1</a></li>
<li><a href="page1.2.html">Link 1.2</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<a href="page2.html">Link 2</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="page2.1.html">Link 2.1</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
SECOND MENU: Code: <ul>
<li>
<a href="page1.html">Link 1</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="page2.html">Link 2</a>
</li>
</ul>
My problem is that I also need to style another menu match this - but the second menu has to have it's first-level links look like the second-level links in the first menu. This wouldn't be a problem normally as I'd be able to use different selectors, ID's or something else, but with this system, the menu is output from a closed function that I can't change. There's no ID's on the lists, and the classes are all the same. I can't change this, and I can't change the system to add anything else around each list to give it a better identifier. This means that both menus use the same CSS. The only way that I can see that I can do this is to set up a CSS rule that styles the list item either only of it contains another<ul> item, or if it doesn't contain another <ul> item. As far as I know that's not possible to do. Does anyone out there have an idea of where I can start with this? I'm embedding menumatic into a joomla 1.6 based website. Menumatic is just a slick css suckerfish menu with some mootools effects. http://greengeckodesign.com/menumatic Anyway, I've edited the CSS to look ALMOST right. The only problem is that I cannot get the menu as a whole to center correctly on the page. Anybody have any ideas about how i can do this? (In addition to the 100's of things I've tried, I've tried putting it in another set of div's and centering that div, but it didn't work ) below is all the code. I left the JS out, since it also runs (a bit less prettily) on pure css. Also, I have verified the CSS at w3. There are four lines that are not standard, but they are to do with the rounded corner borders, not the spacing or alignment. Edit: A bit more playing around and I have think it is a conflict with floating the items left. They need to display:block in order to display correctly so they also need to float (left) since they would otherwise be on separate lines (I think). Anybody have an idea about how to get around this? I tried to justify the text (that would be fine for my purposes), but it didn't work either. CSS: Code:

Hi, I have tried putting list-style-type: none; in various places to remove the circle bullets from the list style in my code but I must be doing something wrong. How can I remove the circle bullets from the expanding menus on this page ? Thanks Hello All, I am trying to get a "horizontal menu" in CSS to properly center in my "#topbar" dev which is basically a header that is 100% width of the page. I have the website name, then the menu which is to be centered directly below it. I have searched google for hours and found one website (I guess cause i'm new it won't let me put the url in here) and it broke down each section of the CSS and it says that to horizontally position the menu just add text-align: center; to the #tabsE ul section, but that doesn't change anything at all. I have also tried replacing the float values with margin-left: auto; and margin-right: auto; (I've used those to center images before) and that just destroys the menu (it all shifts to the right side of the screen, and spaces out vertically). I am really kind of stuck here, I'm pretty new to CSS and most the basics are clicking, it seems to me that centering items so far has been one of the biggest pains yet. Here is the CSS: Code: /*- Menu Tabs E--------------------------- */
#tabsE {
width:100%;
background:#000;
font-size:93%;
line-height:normal;
}
#tabsE ul {
margin:0;
padding:10px 10px 0 0px;
list-style:none;
}
#tabsE li {
display:inline;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#tabsE a {
text-align: center;
background:url("tableftE.gif") no-repeat left top;
margin:0;
padding:0 0 0 4px;
text-decoration:none;
}
#tabsE a span {
text-align: center;
display:block;
background:url("tabrightE.gif") no-repeat right top;
padding:5px 15px 4px 6px;
color:#000;
}
/* Commented Backslash Hack hides rule from IE5-Mac \*/
#tabsE a span {float:none;}
/* End IE5-Mac hack */
#tabsE a:hover span {
color:#FFFFFF;
}
#tabsE a:hover {
background-position:0% -42px;
}
#tabsE a:hover span {
background-position:100% -42px;
}
#tabsE #current a {
background-position:0% -42px;
}
#tabsE #current a span {
background-position:100% -42px;
}
I tried to post the HTML (its just a standard <ul> with list </ul>) but it won't let me, because it contains url's so, I can e-mail you that if neccesary. I truly appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks, Chris Hi, I am creating a site with drop down menus, done purely in CSS. If I don't set the 'width' parameter for 'ul' element then in IE7, Firefox and Opera the menu appears fine. In IE6 however the menu just stacks vertically unless I set the width parameter. The reason I don't want to set width is because I would like the top level menu items to just be the length of the text as in IE7 etc. One item is particularly longer than the others and so wastes space. The code for this element: Code:
#menu ul {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
/*change for IE6*/
/*width: 7em;*/
/*stops going onto two lines but then just becomes hidden*/
/*white-space: nowrap;*/
/*
width: auto;
min-width: 40px;
*/
float: left;
}
Is there any way to set the width to be that of the text contained? IE7, Firefox and Opera seem to do this automatically. After extensive searching I have tried auto width, floating in different ways, setting min-width as well as setting no-wrap but no joy. Is there a way to do this, or will I need to configure a set width to make it backwards compatible? Thanks. ASP css database List menu. Tested in IE6, IE7 and Firefox OK.

I've got everything working fine, except for one little thing; in Firefox the submenu is vertically aligned instead of horizontally. For once IE has gotten it right (or at least the way I want it) by positioning the sub menu horizontally. I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the sub menu to flow horizontally in FF. I've tried display: inline and float: left and all kinds of things but nothing seems to affect it. My site is here http://www.soton.ac.uk/~rollhock/new/index3.php And the css file http://www.soton.ac.uk/~rollhock/new/includes/style.css If anyone is able to help I will be eternally grateful! Thanks Hi all, I was wondering if someone could help me, or point me in the right direction. I am working on a site where I want to use a list based menu for the navigation structure. The first level is vertical on the left hand side of the page, the second level horizontal, and third level drops down vertically underneath. The main content currently is in an Iframe taking up most of the page. The system displays properly in Netscape, and still has a few problems in IE. However my main problem is this. When the menu crosses the IFrame it displays, but then when the mouse moves over the menu/iframe, the Iframe takes the focus and the menu disappears. Setting the Z-index has no effect. Is there a way to fix this, or an alternative to the IFrame? Thanks Wedgetail |
