CSS - Css Dropdowm Menu Firefox Vs Ie
I can't find the problem with my dropdown navigation bar that is CSS based.
In firefox it works fine and page has no errors. In IE 6 the menu drop down doesn't work and I have an error on the page. In IE 7 the hover state and current state background doesn't take up the whole menubar like it should and does in Firefox. I also get a syntax error. I have validated my page with XHTML Trans 1.0 and Validated My CSS. Here is the link to the page. (no links are setup yet just #) http://www.nessphysiotherapy.com/index2.php Matt Similar TutorialsI have created a CSS menu and it works well in Firefox 1.5 and IE 6, but there's a problem with it in Firefox 1.0. See my menu he http://www.republiklabs.com/op/op1/rates2 The problem with this menu in Firefox 1 is that rather than stack the drop down items on top of each other, they fly out to the side horizontally. Any ideas why?? Here is all my CSS for the menu. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! -------------------- .menu { font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; width:930px; margin:0 0 0 0px; } .menu ul { padding:0; margin:0; list-style-type: none; } .menu ul li { float:left; position:relative; } .menu ul li a, .menu ul li a:visited { display:block; text-align:left; text-decoration:none; width:170px; height:10px; color:#FFFFFF; line-height:9px; } .menu ul li ul { display: none; } .menu ul li:hover a { border-width:1px; } .menu ul li:hover ul { display:block; position:absolute; top:50px; left:0; } .menu ul li:hover ul li a { display:block; background: #747679 url(../images/nav_bg1.gif) no-repeat; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 3px 0px 3px 15px; border-width:0 1px 1px 1px; height:12px; } .menu ul li:hover ul li a:hover { background:#006EBD; color:#FFFFFF; } /* NAVIGATION END *******************************/ -------------------- Here is the code used to display the menu: <ul> <li><a class="hide" style="width:110px" href="#" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('nav1','','images/nav1_r.gif',1)" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()"><img src="images/nav1.gif" alt="Funstuff" name="nav1" border="0" id="nav1"></a> <ul> <li><a href="home">Current Issue</a></li> <li><a href="event_calendar">Events Calendar</a></li> <li><a href="ask">Ask the Pros</a></li> <li><a href="stories">Submit a Story/Photo</a></li> <li><a href="review">Boat (equipment) Review</a></li> <li><a href="contest">Contest Form</a></li> <li><a href="competitions">Follow Competitions</a></li> <li><a href="survey">Online Survey</a></li> <li><a href="links">Links</a></li> </ul> </li> ... </ul> -------------------- I came across an article the other day explaining how to give css menus a blending transition effect. Unfortunatly the article I read was only for IE so it didn't work in Firefox. Does anyone know how I can add a transition effect that will work in Firefox? Link to the article: http://www.ssi-developer.net/css/menu-rollover-effect_transition.shtml If you view my website http://jordanmeeter.com/index you'll see how the menu displays, and how it is supposed to appear. And then if you view the website in IE, you'll notice that there are grey boxes inbetween each menu item. What is causing this? Here is the HTML: Code: <div id="navcontainer">
<ul id="navlist">
<li><a href="#" title="One">One</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="Two">Two</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="Three">Three</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="Four">Four</a></li>
<li><a href="#" title="Five">Five</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
And the CSS: Code: #navlist {
padding: 0 1px 1px;
margin-left: 0;
font: bold 12px Verdana, sans-serif;
background: gray;
width: 13em;
}
#navlist li {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
border-top: 1px solid gray;
text-align: left;
}
#navlist li a {
display: block;
padding: 0.25em 0.5em 0.25em 0.75em;
border-left: 1em solid #38739D;
background: #616161;
text-decoration: none;
color: #A5D3EF;
}
#navlist li a:link { color: #A5D3EF; }
#navlist li a:visited { color: #A5D3EF; }
#navlist li a:hover {
border-color: #54ACEB;
color: #FFF;
background: #616161;
}
Hi I'm having trouble getting my drop downs in my menu to work properly in firefox My website is www dot baliweddingsolutions dot com the menu's are truncating, I've looked at the css in firebug but can't for the life of me work out a fix, can anyone offer me some advice? Thanks Diana can anyone help me figure out why the css javascript menu does not display the same in IE and Firefox? Are there common problems? Hi, I'm having a problem, I'm using the chunk of css code below to make a horizontal menu that I want to run across the 895 px #container that I've created. The menu fits perfectly in IE, but in firefox it overflows the last menu button the next line. How do I get the css menu to be the exact same width in firefox and IE?? Here's the css: Code: #snav ul
{
float:left;
width:100%;
padding:0px;
margin:0;
list-style-type:none;
}
a
{
float:left;
width:7.9em;
text-decoration:none;
text-align:center;
color:black;
background-color:#eed9ac;
padding:0.2em 0.6em;

Please let me know the change that i have to do in CSS to make the menu appear in IE the way it looks in Firefox. Thanks and appreciate your help I'm hoping I can get some guidance on why I can't get this popout menu to work! I used the code from this article to build a popout menu, but for some reason I can't get it to work in firefox. If you test their demo in Firefox but if you test mine, it looks great in Internet Explorer, but gets all messed up Firefox & Opera. If you save the page you will see there is a style sheet as well as a small Javascript file too. If someone could check over my code for me that would be great! I have been staring at it for hours and can't seem to find the problem! This is my first project using CSS styles to control something besides the usual things like fonts, etc. so go easy on me! Thanks in advance! Chelsea Alrite, I have a dropdown menu that is fully CSS driven. The menu works fine except that the dropdown links dont work in Firefox. Once clicked the menu goes to the main heading link for the dropdown menu, instead of the dropdowns item link. However if u right click on the link and say open in new window/tab it works fine. I have attached the files. Thanks a lot Nick the menu at the site I am building myself at: http://sphinxgaming.ath.cx/ Works perfectly in firefox, all links are missing on the menu in IE And the validator gives me some very strange errors (document type does not allow element "BODY", for example) http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=h...lidator%2F1.654 Any ideas? By the way, I have tried 3 different DOCTYPES, with no better results Hello, I have a problem to display a List/Menu in IE. It cut off the text in the drop down list when I set the WIDTH of the drop down box shorter than the text. It works fine in FireFox. Here is the picture I captured to demonstrate what I'm talking about. Sorry the forum don't allow me to post url, please copy the link and paste it in your browser linklighthouse.com/dropdown_ie.html How do I fix this problem in IE? Please help!

Thank you in advance How do I fix this CSS-Firefox Issue? I have a horizontal CSS menu with a width of 400px. There are four elements each with a width of 100px. The height is 50px (if that matters at all). This whole menu is centered using the <center> tag right outside the <ul> tag which I use to center the menu. The following is the CSS I'm using. It's not fully complete with respect to the images. The problem is that the elements (with a width of 100px) will all line up horizontally as expected in IE, but the fourth element drops off (vertical ~20px vertical shift) in Firefox. I have tried adjusting the width of the <ul> in the CSS and it will bring all the elements on the same horizontal level if I change the width to 500px, but it doesn't center the menu anymore. Is there anyway I could center my menu without the error in Firefox. CSS: #nav {width:400px; list-style:none; overflow:hidden;} #nav ul li {padding: 10px; list-style-type:none; display:inline; /*text-indent: -9999px;*/} #nav a {display:block; float:left; text-decoration:none; outline:none; width:100px; height:35px;background-image: url(MenuBar.gif);} #home {} #home:hover {background-position:0 -100px;} #products #products #history #history #contact #contact #nav a:link {color:blue;} #nav a:hover {color:green;} a {outline:none;} HTML: <td width="80%" id="nav"><center><ul id="nav"> <li><a href="#" id="home">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#" id="product">Products</a></li> <li><a href="#" id="history">History</a></li> <li><a href="#" id="contact">Contact</a></li> </ul></center> </td> [This menu is organized by a large table, hence the 80% width which helps organize the elements of the page] PLEASE Help me. I can't seem to get it working. EDIT: Solved. I'm starting to get a headache trying to figure out what the problem is with Firefox on this issue... A highlighted menu should drop down over the div beneath it. It works fine in Opera & IE, but Firefox gets moody about it. geekville.net Any ideas? Thanks! EDIT: Nevermind, I made it work. 2am is a good time to stop writing css. Hi all, haven't had to post for awhile. Need some help!

My problem is everything's working perfect in IE(a rarity), but in Firefox the box pops up too high and is wider than I want Here's the code... CSS: Code:

<p>Here's my dilema. Hover over Home Fire Sprinklers link. There should be a popup window below menu.<br />Popup location & width looks great in IE.<br />But in Firefox it pops up higher & wider than I wish. </p>
<p>Could someone tell me what I'm overlooking?...Many Thanks!</p>
<p>Got idea from <a href="http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/popups/demo.html">Eric Meyer's site</a>. His page doesn't encounter this problem and I can't see anything special in the source that's much different from mine.</p>

Many Thanks, James Here is the issue in firefox: It's displaying the divider 1 pixel down? It displays inline with IE. The code is: #navigation { height:37px; background: url(/img/menu_bg.jpg) repeat-x; } #navigation ul{ list-style:none; } #navigation ul li{ display: block; float: left; width:83px; /* 751 divided by number of items (9) */ text-align:center; background: url(/img/divider.jpg) right no-repeat; line-height:37px; } #navigation ul li.last{ background: none; } #navigation a:link,#navigation a:visited { color:#FFFFFF; font-weight:bold; text-decoration:none; } #navigation a:hover { color:#ff9f47; } Help appreciated. |
