CSS - How Can I Integrate A Dropdown Flyout Menu Into Pre-existing Images?
Hi, I am hoping someone can help me please.
I am looking for some code (CSS, PHP or otherwise) to be able to create a drop down menu (with flyout) on mouseover of some pre-existing pictures. I have tried to take some codes which "sort of" do what I need but I'm unable to modify them to do what I need them to. It seems like the varying widths of the PNGs is a sticking point. At the minute I have a navigation bar consisting of 5 PNGs of same height but different widths. I had intended it to work so that when you click on these top links you are given a page for that section, and along the top of that page are "sub links". However, I have changed my mind and would like to keep the current images, but on rollover have a drop down menu appear with the different "sub links" instead of having them on the top of each page. For example I have a PNG which says "About Clan Wars". I would like a mouseover to show a Dropdown with flyout like: >What Is Clan Wars? >What are the rules ----> D Class Rules ----> C Class Rules >Clan Wars 1 ----> Fight Card ----> Pictures ----> Videos >Clan Wars 2 ----> Fight Card ----> Pictures ----> Videos I hope that makes sense to whoever is reading. Thank you Sean Similar TutorialsHi there, I'm working my way through html, css and web design at the moment, and looking at drop down menus. Currently I'm looking at css only menus, I haven't delved into javascript yet. So I I've got a few questions regarding what I've currently got: html4strict Code: Original - html4strict Code <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Hello</title> <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" href="default.css" /> </head> <body> <div id="navbar"> <ul> <li><a href="#">Main Page</a></li> <li><a href="#">About</a></li> <li><a class="dropmenu"><a href="#">Tutorials</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Photoshop</a></li> <li><a href="#">Dreamweaver</a></li> <li><a href="#">HTML</a></li> <li><a href="#">CSS</a></li> </ul> </a></li> <li><a class="dropmenu"><a href="#">Articles</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">3 column magic</a></li> <li><a href="#">Site layouts</a></li> <li><a href="#">Creating Navbars</a></li> </ul> </a></li> <li><a href="#">Links</a></li> </ul> </div> </body> </html> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> css Code: Original - css Code @charset "utf-8"; /* CSS Document */ #navbar ul { padding: 0; margin: 0; list-style: none; background-color: #3F9; width: 120px; } #navbar li { position: relative; } #navbar li li { position: static; } #navbar ul ul { background-color: #7B5; top: 0; left: 120px; display: none; position: absolute; } #navbar a { text-decoration: none; text-align: center; display: block; padding: 5px 10px; } #navbar a.dropmenu { padding: 0; margin: 0; border: none; display: block; } #navbar li:hover ul, #navbar a.dropmenu:hover ul { display: block; } #navbar a:hover, #navbar li:hover { color: #000; background-color: #3CF; } #navbar li:hover li:hover { background-color: #F04; } @charset "utf-8"; So its currently a vertical flyout menu, I'll be looking at horizontal drop down ones soon. Regarding the last css rule, I was just experimenting with presentation and was wondering if I could make the second level of menus have a different hover background colour than that of the initial menu. Is it just something I've got wrong with the selector (#navbar li:hover li:hover)? The 2nd, more puzzling thing, is that you can see in the first menu, only the text comes up as a hyperlink (or clickable). In the second level menus, the whole area of the li (being an a element displayed in block mode) is clickable. I am pretty sure this is a result of setting the position property of the the li elements to relative. I have set the li elements to static (default) in the second menu, and as noted, they work fine (or more desirably). Why does changing the position property of the li to relative suddenly stop it from being clickable? The relative positioning is needed to correctly position the second level uls (menus), unless there is another way to do that. BTW Currently looking at it with ie7 at the moment. What's going on here? Lastly, I was hoping my a.dropmenu elements would let ie6 display the menu; sadly this doesn't seem to be happening. Again, any ideas what's gone wrong? Hi I have the following css drop down menu. Code: .menu{
padding: 0 0 0 32px;
margin: 0;
list-style: none;
height: 40px;
background: #fff url(../images/button1a.gif) repeat-x;
position: relative;
font-family: arial, verdana, sans-serif;
}
.menu li.top {
display: block;
float: left;
position: relative;
}
.menu li a.top_link {
display: block;
float: left;
height: 40px;
line-height: 33px;
color: #bbb;
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 11px;
font-weight: bold;
padding: 0 0 0 12px;
cursor: pointer;
}
.menu li a.top_link span {
float: left;
font-weight: bold;
display: block;
padding: 0 24px 0 12px;
height: 40px;
}
.menu li a.top_link span.down {
float: left;
display: block;
padding: 0 24px 0 12px;
height: 40px;
background: url(../images/down.gif) no-repeat right top;
}
.menu li a.top_link:hover span {
background: url(../images/button4.gif) no-repeat right top;
}
.menu ul, .menu :hover ul ul{
position: absolute;
left: -9999px;
top: -9999px;
width: 0;
height: 0;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
}
.menu :hover ul.sub {
left: 2px;
top: 40px;
right: 2px;
background: #ffffff;
padding: 3px 0;
border: 1px solid #999999;
white-space: nowrap;
width: 200px;
height: auto;
}
.sub li a:link {
color: black;
}
.menu :hover ul.sub li a {
font-weight: normal;
display: block;
font-size: 11px;
height: 20px;
width: 192px;
line-height: 20px;
text-indent: 5px;
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
border: 3px solid #fff;
border-width: 0 0 0 3px;
}
.menu :hover ul.sub li a:hover {
background: #999999;
color: #fff;
}
Now to my problem, if I do the following: add this row to the bottom of the css menu it works fine and all visited links turn white. Code: /*This work*/
ul.dropdown a:visited { color: #fff; text-decoration: none; }
And what I want to do is to make this work for active links only, so my quastion is why don't the following work, ie, the active links don't turn white, why, are there no active links? Code: /*The following don't work*/
ul.menu a:active { color: #fff; text-decoration: underline; }
You can see the menu here http://www.tdsoft.se Hi there. I'm developing a website using Wordpress as the major CMS, it uses a navigation plugin called NAVT which makes dynamic navigation menus and allows you to nest some links under other links. Click here to see how it outputs the HTML. Basically it's a series of unordered lists inside other unordered lists, cluttered with various classes (none of them used by the plugin itself). So basically I want to turn that into a pure CSS only flyout/dropdown menus, I've seen code flying around but with all those classes that NAVT applies I'm struggling to adapt it. Has anyone done something similar to this? Cheers, the following code works in opera and i think mozilla, but in ie only the top menu flies-out. the other two (a div in a table, and a table in a div) don't work. Any idea how to amend the css so they do work. I have tried setting the z-index to various things, so i dont think that's it. ...waiting to fly Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"

Hello, everyone. I'm a relative newcomer to CSS, and I decided I'd try and add a neat flyout menu to the new site I'm developing: www.mindwallpictures.com. As you'll notice, it works great in Firefox, but doesn't work at all in IE. Here is the CSS code from my site: Code:

It has been altered (by myself, the n00b) from the original code found at CSSplay: http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/flyout_4level.html It's bugging the crap out of me, and the guy wants the site done as early as next week. This is the one thing holding me back, since people...actually...use IE. -_- Poor souls. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. I was wondering if anyone knows of any tutorials or resources for creating a menu system using css. The problem I have is that when I change the submenu's which are divs to display, they pop into place. I want to change this aspect and assume there is a javascript solution to make the display slow down, but have not been able to find one on this forum or using google. Perhaps a pointer or two? Hello I hope somebody can help me. I have a newly designed home page for my website, which looks fine now in pretty well all browsers - but I've just started getting feedback from people looking at the site with ie, and they say that the flyout menu on the left of the page is obscured by the content in the centre column when it does its flying out thing. I've tried giving the menu elements z-index:100; but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. I would be really appreciative if anyone can help - it is even more difficult to work out as I don't have access to a machine with ie as a browser, and remote screen shots don't show up the problem... This is the page: http://www.independentliving.co.uk/index.shtml And this is the part of the style sheet for the menu: .menu { width:150px; position:relative; margin:0; font-size:11px; margin:0px 0; z-index:100; } .menu ul li a, .menu ul li a:visited { display:block; text-decoration:none; color:#003366; width:150px; height:25px; text-align:center; border:1px solid #fff; border-width:1px 1px 0 0; background:#003366 url(nav.gif); line-height:19px; font-size:11px; z-index:100; } .menu ul { padding:0; margin:0; list-style-type: none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li { float:left; margin-right:1px; position:relative; z-index:100; } .menu ul li ul { display:none; } /* specific to non IE browsers */ .menu ul li:hover a { color:#996600; background:#cccccc; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul { display:block; position:absolute; top:0; left:150px; width:150px; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul li a.hide { background:#ffffff; color:#003366; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; } .menu ul li:hover ul li:hover a.hide { width:150px; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; } .menu ul li:hover ul li ul { display: none; } .menu ul li:hover ul li a { display:block; background:#cccccc; color:#996600; width:200px; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul li a:hover { background:#dfc184; color:#666666; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul li:hover ul { display:block; position:absolute; left:151px; top:0; color:#003366; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul li:hover ul li a { display:block; width:200px; background:#dfc184; color:#003366; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } .menu ul li:hover ul li:hover ul li a:hover { background:#bd8d5e; color:#fff; font-size:11px; text-decoration:none; z-index:100; } Any ideas gratefully received! Thanks Frances I have a vertical flyout menu setup on the left side of the page with the associated links arranged in vertical columns next to each menu selection. It is working fine 99% of the time but I am getting some reports that the vertical columns do not touch the main selection column so that when the user moves the cursor to the right to go to the selection list there is a break between the columns and the column disappears before a selection can be made. I have not been able to duplicate this on my IE8 and it works fine with Firefox. This makes it rather hard to trouble shoot so I am hoping someone else has had this problem and know what I am talking about. It seems to only happen to users with IE7 and IE8 but not most IE8 users. Is there perhaps some code I need to add to the CSS file that will solve this problem? THX I changed over all my CSS flyout menus from the CSSPlay method to the whatever:hover method. It's working great. I've just got a minor, but annoying, problem that occurs in IE (6 & 7 tested). URL 1 URL 2 Check out the left-side navigation menus on those two pages. Obviously they're different files, but the code is exactly the same for the menus (except the path for the links, of course). The pages even use the same stylesheet. So why, then, does the menu flutter when you hover over the "Our Dogs" <li> on the base level menu, but not move a pixel on the /dogs/ level menu? Here's the path to the stylesheet: Stylesheet 1 Hello, This is my first post, so let my start by saying thanks and hopefully this can be of some help. I work in a college, and I'm somewhat unfamiliar with the CSS used. I also apologize in advance if my issue is simple, but I looked through the rules and resources sections and I felt my issue was somewhat specific. In an effort to save time and frustration, I'll put it in the simplest terms I can: I'm trying to make the site I have control over have a menu that drops down upon mouseover. The site is he www dot ccm dot edu/admissions The menu I'd like to make expandable on mouseover is the "Things to Do" menu on the right side of the page. For example, here's how another site does it: www dot ecc dot edu/admissions You can see the menu on the left side of the page, "Admissions Checklist". I show that site as an example because we're using the same templates. I inquired as to how they achieved the menu on their site, but they unfortunately didn't know. If possible, I'd like to have the menu expand upon mouseover instead of a click. Below are the copied CSS codes for each menu. The site I want the menu to be able to expand on mouseover: Code: /* TodoList */
.AC-TodoList {position:absolute;top:7px;right:-27px;background:#eeeac3;width:164px;padding:19px 13px 0px;}
.AC-TodoList DIV {padding-bottom:14px;text-align:center;}
.AC-TodoHeader {padding-left:21px;}
.AC-TodoHeader H4 {background:url(../images/admissions/header_thingsToDo.gif) no-repeat;width:116px;height:14;text-indent:-9999px;overflow:hidden;}
.AC-TodoList .AC-TodoCheck {display:none;}
#zone1 .AC-TodoList A {display:block;background:url(../images/admissions/bg_todoSm.gif) no-repeat;width:153px;height:22px;padding:8px 5px 4px;font-weight:bold;color:#8d8a6e;}
#zone1 .AC-TodoActive A {background-position:0px -34px;color:#fff;}
#zone1 .AC-TodoComplete A {background-position:0px -68px;width:128px;padding-left:30px;text-align:left;}
#zone1 .AC-TodoList A.large {background-image:url(../images/admissions/bg_todoLg.gif);height:36px;line-height:1.4em;}
#zone1 .AC-TodoActive A.large {background-position:0px -48px;}
#zone1 .AC-TodoComplete A.large {background-position:0px -96px;}
.AC-TodoListCt .controls {display:none;}
And the site that already has the effect I'd like to use:
/* To Do List */
#AC-TodoList {margin:0px -20px 0px -24px;background-color:#586A3E;padding-left:24px;}
#AC-TodoList INPUT {display:none;}
#AC-TodoList .AC-Spacer {display:none;}

I apologize if I'm breaking any rules, or my issue is simplistic. I especially apologize if my issue isn't well illustrated because of the no links policy. But thank you in advance to anyone that might be able to help. 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've researched and tried just about every variation. The issue is in IE6. I have a CSS dropdown menu based on the suckerfish dropdown. But in my case, the main nav bar uses images (backgrounds) and the dropdowns are text. In IE6, the menu displays -- but disappears when you go to mouseover one of the sub-items. BUT, if you quickly mouse down past the first sub-item -- it will stay and work correctly. Very odd. Here's my HTML: Code: <ul id="navLeft"> <li id="home"><a class="topNav" href="/" title="Home">Home</a></li> <li id="services"><a class="topNav" href="#" title="Services">Services</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> </ul> </li> <li id="about"><a class="topNav" href="/about-us/" title="About Us">About Us</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> </ul> </li> <li id="resources"><a class="topNav" href="/resources/" title="Resources">Resources</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> </ul> </li> <li id="contact"><a class="topNav" href="/contact-us/" title="Contact Us">Contact Us</a> <ul> <li><a href="#">Link</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> And here's my CSS: Code: #navLeft {
width: 659px;
height: 62px;
float: left;
list-style-type: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0
}
#navLeft li {

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm stumped. I have been hunting around for an all CSS drop down menu that when you hover on the heading the menu expands down to show the heading 1 menu and if you hovered over the next menu item this expands to show that menu list instead a bit like the 'be the first to apply' on the right of this page, http://www.fish4.co.uk/iad/jobs search for say 'admin' just to get to the results page as this is where the menu is. the look is not important but the function is BUT.... i wanted to have many links in the drop down not just the one as in this example. this is the extracted code i have got so far that does what you see on this page. Code:
<style>
#rightcolumn {
float: right;
width: 170px;
text-align: center;
}
#leftcolumn {
float: left;
width: 545px;
padding: 10px;
}
h3#bftahead {
text-align:left;
color:#c1001f;
font-size:1.5em;
font-weight:bold;
margin:23px 0px 10px 0px;
}
#bfta h4 {
font-size:1.1em;
margin:0em;
padding:0.4em 0.1em 0.6em 0.1em
}
#bfta {
width:170px;
text-align:left;
padding:0px;
margin:0px 0px 10px 0px;
list-style-type:none;

overflow:hidden;
background:#ffffff url('images/bfta-background.jpg') bottom no-repeat;

}

#bfta-whitebrand {list-style:none;margin:0em 0em 1em 1em;padding:0px;}

Hi all -- I've used plenty of CSS in the past, but I'm currently working on a dropdown menu that is more challenging than I had anticipated. A few things I need to fix that I just cannot figure out: 1) The last <li> in the dropdown seems to be overlapping my border 2) I want to put at least 10px of padding on the left hand side of the dropdown menu 3) I need to turn the carrot in front of each menu item to #ff9900 4) Whenever I try to increase or decrease the space between menu items, it seems as though white lines appear between my menu items. In the interest of full disclosure, I found this CSS out somewhere on the web, and I've been trying to customize it since I didn't feel I had the knowledge to build it from scratch. Normally, I'd prefer to create something on my own, but limited time and knowledge prevented me from doing so this time around. Attached below are my HTML and CSS code. I tried to post a link, but the forum will not allow me. If you can offer any assistance, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance for your time!

Hi, on my site http://www.mattmdesign.com, sometimes when you mouseover the portfolio the menu appears in the wrong spot. someone also said that it is appearing on the left side of the page everytime with mozilla 1.0 Does anyone know how I can make it appear right under the porfolio link every time?
