CSS - Need Help With Css-based Nav Menu
Hi All,
I'm in the process of building my very first CSS-based site, and I'm having some challenges with getting the nav menu to render and function properly. I'm using the Pixy rollover technique, and I've modeled my code after several sources, since none of the sources exactly match what I need to do for this site. I'm sure my code is probably pretty messed up, but I don't have enough experience yet to determine how and where. I'm using Dreamweaver CS3 to create the code/pages. There are three main issues: 1. The nav menu is not placed correctly on the page (it's too high in Firefox, and too low in IE) 2. The links for the nav buttons are not rendering 3. The rollover states for the nav buttons are not rendering Here's the relevant code as it's presently constituted: Code: CSS .twoColLiqLtHdr #mainContent {
margin: 5px 20px 0 291px;
background-image: url(../assets/structure/main_background.png);
width: 638px;
height: 622px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
position: relative;
}
#mainContent #navMenu {
width: 636px;
height: 60px;
background-image: url(../assets/navigation/navigation_buttons.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
#mainContent #navMenu ul {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
float: left;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li {
float: left;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li a {
display: block;
}
/*nav menu up*/
#mainContent #navMenu li#services a:link {
background-position: 0 0;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li#faq a:link {
background-position: -167px 0;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li#about a:link {
background-position: -272px 0;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li#contact a:link {
background-position: -422px 0;
}
/*nav menu over*/
#mainContent #navMenu li#services a:hover {
background-position: 0 -60px;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li#faq a:hover {
background-position: -167px -60px;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li#about a:hover {
background-position: -272px -60px;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li#contact a:hover {
background-position: -422px -60px;
}
/*nav menu down*/
#mainContent #navMenu li#services a:active {
background-position: 0 -120px;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li#faq a:active {
background-position: -167px -120px;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li#about a:active {
background-position: -272px -120px;
}
#mainContent #navMenu li#contact a:active {
background-position: -422px -120px;
}
Code: XHTML <div id="mainContent">
<div id="navMenu">
<ul>
<li id="services"><a href="services.html"></a></li>
<li id="faq"><a href="faq.html"></a></li>
<li id="about"><a href="about_us.html"></a></li>
<li id="contact"><a href="contact_us.html"></a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
I'd be happy to post links to my nav menu image and uploaded code, but I can't yet since I'm a new user. If anyone who thinks they can help wants to see them, please let me know and I'll send the links in a PM (provided I can do that). Thanks in advance for any help provided. I've been working on this issue for almost 8 hours, and I'm ready to move on to the next one. Sam Similar TutorialsHello! I am putting the finishing touches on a website for a client of mine, and even though the main menu works perfectly in Firefox 3.0.10, IE 7 and IE 8 both appear to add a CR/LF to the end of each menu button. The menu is CSS based, and uses ul and li tags. Here is the CSS Code: Code: @charset "ISO-8859-1";
#nav {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;

/* This keeps the menu from interfering with the main content. */

Here is the other file: Code: <html><head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/style/MainMenu.css"> <title>Main Menu</title> </head> <ul id="nav"> <li><a href="index.php">Nova Health Center Home</a></li> <li><a href="drtoufigh.php">About Our Doctor</a></li> <li><a href="approach.php">About Our Approach</a></li> <li><a href="clients.php">Client Testimonials</a></li> <li><a href="nutrition.php">Nutrition Information</a></li> <li><a href="faq.php">Questions And Answers</a></li> <li><a href="directions.php">Directions & Office Hours</a></li> </ul> </html> Can anybody tell me what I need to change to make the menu render correctly in IE 7/8? I have made both files pass W3C Validation, consulted Google, researched IE CSS bugs and after many hours of failed attempts, I figured it would be quicker to ask here. I know that the rest of the site is not W3C compliant (yet); however, all I need for now is to fix this one bug so I can show it to my client in IE as well as FF. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide! Regards, Riley F. Marquis III Hey everyone. I am new to CSS and the forum, thus slightly overwhelmed with a project I am undertaking to produce a CSS menu. The menu is text based, vertically stacked and has two main criteria: 1. On mouse over one of the text buttons (Work for example) to the right or underneath a hidden DIV appears with a selection of sub options. 2. When the above occurs, the text of the Work menu changes to a specific colour. Eg: Work - HIMALAYAS | LIONS EDITORIAL About Links Blog At the moment I am using the following code to show and hide: <a href="#"onmouseover="showhide('script'); return(false); ">WORK</a> <div style="display: none;" id="script"> <a href="ps">HIMALAYAS</a> <a href="l">LIONS EDITORIAL</a> </div> <script> function showhide(id){ if (document.getElementById){ obj = document.getElementById(id); if (obj.style.display == "none"){ obj.style.display = ""; } else { obj.style.display = "none"; } } } </script> Can anyone help me out? Ray. Hi, folks. I'm running into a pretty serious problem to which I'm really, really hoping someone will know a solution. We use a menu system on our site which is made up of layers. It provides for flyout-hierarchical menus, and up until now has caused me no grief. However, now that I've embedded a flash movie onto a particular page the layers that comprise the flyout menu items are hidden beneath the Flash movie. I've tried putting the object tag inside a div and setting the z-index of the div to 1 (and also to -1) but that didn't work. Can anyone take a look and let me know if they have any ideas? http://www.unbc.ca/test.html Cheers and TIA, Pablo Im trying to make a link that is based on 2 images, one for the un-hovered or normal state, and the other for the hover state. I just did 2 of these at 3dotmedia.com/redesign and now I'm trying to do the same thing at greedydogkennel.com/redesign but it WILL NOT WORK. I am totally stumped, it has to be something to do with the positioning inside my css I assume... on the page, I want the pictures of the dogs to be normal, but when hovered I have a frosty shaded grey image (as in some kind of lighting) to serve as the hover state..I am masking the a href with a class with a transparent .gif (since SOMETHING has to serve as the object of the anchor yes?) but here is my css: .rock-link {background-image: url(looks/Rock_small_w_frame.jpg); } .rock-link:hover {background-image: url(looks/Rock_small_w_frame-up.jpg); } .suade-link {background-image: url(looks/Suadey_Ladysmall_w_frame.jpg); } .suade-link:hover {background-image: url(looks/Suadey_Ladysmall_w_frame-up.jpg); } and the HTML is as follows: <a href="suade.html" class="suade-link"><img src="looks/seethru2.gif" border="0"/></a> <img src="looks/spacer2.gif" border="0" /> <a href="rock.html" class="rock"><img src="looks/seethru.gif" border="0" /></a></div> but there is nothing that displays, only the transparent .gif on the index page you will not see any images under the heading "The Dogs" because this is where the problem is, but if you click on any of the links you will see the pages where I have not applied the class for the a href to take on the hover states, just so you can see how the images look and where they appear. I have done this so many times, and my code is IDENTICAL at 3dotmedia.com/redesign and it works fine...any help would be GREATLY appreciated...it has to be something Im missing, but WHAT?!?!? thanks. Following sample is from http://www.code-couch.com/jeff/snippets/general/tektips-navigation-example.html is what I am trying to reference to create a template. But how do I how keep the state of Menu on each requested page any help is appreciated. The following menu is saved in a separate jsp file i.e. navs.jsp. I include this navigation jsp file in all of my files. Initially the drop down looks like: Code: . Ask.Jeeves . [+] Google.com . [+] Yahoo.com Now clicking [+] in front of Google.com will look like. Code:
. Ask.Jeeves
. [-] Google.com
. Google.co.ie
. Google.co.ie
. [+] Google.co.nz
. [+] Yahoo.com
Lets's say now if I click on Google.co.ie it takes me to sample.jsp and on this requested page (sample.jsp) how can I show the following menu hierarchy with Google.co.ie bold/underlined/colorchanged showing what menu content I clicked and am viewing the appropriate content i.e. Code:
. Ask.Jeeves
. [-] Google.com
. Google.co.ie
. Google.co.ie
. [+] Google.co.nz
. [+] Yahoo.com
Same way clicking Google.com or Yahoo.com or Ask.Jeeves shows you the following hierarchy on the requested page with higlight/bold/colored the link we just selected. i.e. Code: . Ask.Jeeves . [+] Google.com . [+] Yahoo.com Any time clicking on the menu takes me to some page but on that page I want to show th hierarchy of the menu all the way to which is recently clicked with different color setting.

With the website lady gone on a trip around the world for a year, I ended up being the person to attempt to modify our side menu to show an additional column of subcategories. I tinkered around with the code we had and I managed to get this to work in Firefox, however in IE7 the contents of the menu shift down a few pixels when you hover over a category. To view my problem, go to scannerparts.biz I've messed around with this for a few days and everything has become a big confusing mess so I have no choice but give in and ask for help. I thank anyone in advance for any assistance you can offer. -Emerson Here is the code: hover.css Code:

Hi all, I've got a horizontal menu that is working just fine in every browser but IE 6 and 7. In IE it's almost there, except that the submenus will only appear one level deep. The menu is created with nested lists. The :hover functionality is simulated via JavaScript for IE 6. The IE developer toolbar shows the 3rd level menu is correctly being changed to display: block when its parent is hovered, and the border the dev toolbar draws even puts it in the correct place, it just doesn't actually appear. You can find the page he http://www.perceptes.com/topdog/ The CSS and JS (uses jQuery) can be found he http://www.perceptes.com/topdog/css/screen.css http://www.perceptes.com/topdog/css/ie.css (loaded with a conditional comment) http://www.perceptes.com/topdog/js/tdps.js http://www.perceptes.com/topdog/js/ie.js (loaded with a conditonal comment) For a specific example of what I'm talking about, try hovering over the second item, Filters & Parts. This will give you another level with four choices. Each of those also has child elements, but when hovered over, the next level doesn't appear. Try it in something other than IE 6 or 7 to see how it's supposed to look. Thanks very much in advance! I'm helping these fine folks fix a few little issues with their site but this one I can't seem to quite figure out. If you roll over the main menu you will see the sub menu slide down on the left. For the life of me I can't get it to line up under the main nav. I've tried many, many things. Can anyone provide a few hints, tips, suggestions? Thanks so much!!! 98.214.188.71/life at excel.htm Code: /*******************menu starts********************/ #menu{float:left; width:100%; background:#ffffff;} #menu a{font-weight:bold; line-height:16px;} #menu table{float:left;

Ok, I know virtually nothing about css, but realized that that a css menu is better for SEO. Anyway I found this vertical menu that works the way I want it. But I also need a horizontal version of it with dropdown submenus. Can someone help with this? I have been trying a bunch of things but it just looks awful and doesn't work right. It has 3 basic componets; Html, Javascript, and css. Here they are below. drop_down.js: Code: // JavaScript Document
startList = function() {
if (document.all&&document.getElementById) {
navRoot = document.getElementById("nav");
for (i=0; i<navRoot.childNodes.length; i++) {
node = navRoot.childNodes[i];
if (node.nodeName=="LI") {
node.onmouseover=function() {
this.className+=" over";
}
node.onmouseout=function() {
this.className=this.className.replace(" over", "");
}
}
}
}
}
window.onload=startList;

Hi folks. I'm hoping someone can help me out. I have a template I've been working with (struggling with). It has a style sheet attached to it and I'm trying to replace the main, static menu with a drop down Spry Menu. I've managed to get most of it figured out but my dropdowns aren't colored correctly. The Spry Menu isn't centered on the page. The menu titles are spread out too far also (ie. it's suppose to be "About Me" but the "Me" is way below the "About"). I'm guessing it's probably an easy fix for you all but I've been playing with it all day without a lot of progress. Thank you. Let me know if I should post links. I working on a CSS to display a round-shouldered-tab menu. My result is acceptable: http://rickduley.webs.com/roundShoulderTabMenu.jpg except for the fact that the tabs are set below the menuBar on which the are supposed to display. I have run out of ideas. Would someone please set me on the right path? Thanks. P.S.: the code is at http://rickduley.webs.com/roundShoulderTabMenu.zip.kgb - you have to delete the 'dot key gee bee' suffix. I'm using the suggestions of those on here and using the http://www.dynamicsitesolutions.com...2/#relatedLinks menu (I'm a little confused over what the differences are but that's the least of my problems) What I want is a 2nd level drop down menu, but I'm clueless on how to go about it..??? I want to make it so that when you go to type something into the textbox(lastname or firstname) the menu stays open. right now if you try and type something into the textbox the menu closes but you still keep right on writing and then go back into the menu and click the submit button. I also want it so that you can press the <enter> key on your keyboard and it will submit the search query that you are working on. if there is a better way of doing this all please let me know this is menu.php PHP Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>BHI and Roth's Website menu</title> <?php <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="menu_css.css" /> </head> <BODY STYLE="background-color:transparent"> <ul class="pureCssMenu pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="home.php" target="showframe">Home</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>Fill-in a form</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="form_bhi_hoac.php" target="showframe">102HOAC</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="form_for_adding_email_addresses.php" target="showframe">Email database</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="form_support_application.php" target="showframe">Support Application</a></li> </ul> <!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]--></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>View the form data</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="view_102hoac.php" target="showframe">102HOAC</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>Search Addressbook by:</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>Last Name:</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><form class="pureCssMenui" action="lastname_search.php" method="post" target="showframe"><input type="text" name="lastname" size="30" /><input type="submit" align="right" value="Search" /></form></li> </ul> <!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]--></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>First Name:</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><form class="pureCssMenui" action="firstname_search.php" method="post" target="showframe"><input type="text" name="firstname" size="30" /><input type="submit" align="right" value="Search" /></form></li> </ul> <!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]--></li> </ul> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="sa.php" target="showframe">Support Application</a></li> </ul> <!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]--></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>Resources</span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenui"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="#"><span>View BHI Brochure -></span><![if gt IE 6]></a><![endif]><!--[if lte IE 6]><table><tr><td><![endif]--> <ul class="pureCssMenum"> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="bhi_brochure_feb_08.pdf" target="_blank">in .pdf format</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="bhi_brochure_feb_08.swf" target="_blank">in .swf format</a></li> </ul> </ul> <!--[if lte IE 6]></td></tr></table></a><![endif]--></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="gallery.html" target="showframe">Photo Gallery</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="edit.php" target="showframe">Edit account information</a></li> <li class="pureCssMenui"><a class="pureCssMenui" href="logout.php" target="_top">Logout</a></li> </ul> </body> </html> <?php } } } else //if the cookie does not exist, they are taken to the login screen { header("Location: login.php"); } ?> </html> And this is menu_css.css Code: #pcm{display:none;}

IE seems to have a lot of trouble with percentage based heights. In certain circumstances they seem to be okay, other times they seem be completely ignored. Pixel based DIV heights seem to work, but I don't know if it is just the circumstance or what not. Does anyone know what the actual "rules" are about this as it applies to IE? I'm attempting a page layout that contains a scrolling div for the main content (overflow: auto. I want this div to be placed a fixed position from the top of the browser window but to expand vertically to fill up the rest of the window space. I can get something working in IE6 using an MS expression for the height of the DIV Example 1 But obviously this doesn't work on Firefox. I tried a different method to avoid the expression. Example 2 This one is odd, in that at first site it doesn't look as though it works in IE6... BUT if you re-size the window (even slightly) it then appears how I would expect. However this version still doesn't give a scrolling div in Firefox, it seems the height of 100% given to the div #bottomHalf is over ridden. Is there actually a way I can achieve what I'm after that will work across the latest browsers? (I'm not worried about IE5, NN4 etc). I have delved into building websites using CSs instead of tables. It looks great in IE 7 and above and Firefox, but in IE 6 it is out of whack badly. Like all the divs are on one side, when all the measurements are correct and should fit. Is there something I am doing wrong, it looks right even when I look at it in Dreamweaver. Is there a special method you should always apply when building a CSS website, like always add border:none; on all divs, just the same way, that you always have to add border: 0; on all images otherwise a border will appear? I'm currently trying to convert my javascript rollover buttons (based out of generic DW code, ewww!) to CSS/Unordered List based nav. Here's the original site design template: http://www.ipfwcommunicator.org/story.php?id=16 If you look at the top, you can see that there is are a series of bitmaps that get switched with alternates on rollover. That is what I'm trying to reproduce he http://www.ipfwcommunicator.org/story_dnav.php?id=16 In this second template, the same page (essentially) is drawn via CSS and an unordered list. The inspiration for this comes from a list apart. Here are the things I'm struggling with: 1. MSIE5 (Mac) and possibly windows versions, are drawing each "button" list-item as the full width of the screen. They should be the width of the text + the 14px padding on right/left. 2. Vertical centering. I know this is a touchy issue with CSS... not really possible, I've heard from some. Regardless, if anyone has any ideas, I would like the text to appear vertically centered in the navbar area. The full CSS is viewable he http://www.ipfwcommunicator.org/css/style.css The area of interest is #navbar (the div that blocks out a 23px tall bar across the entire viewport) and #menu and it's subitems (the IDs that describe the function of the list) Note this list is intended to be dynamic. Once the PHP is written, these line items will appear dynamically depending on whether each issue has the given section (some issues may not have a "features" link, and thus it will not appear). However, for design continuity, I would like the nav bar to extend across the entire width of the viewport regardless. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This project was essentially done and then the client changed the whitepaper last minute. Thanks! |
