CSS - Drop Down Link

Hello
Is there a way i can restore my <a href> link back to its original color, that is before the a:visited event, when I click on another link?
PS. no Javascript code needed, is their an alternative in css?

I have my links defined with a dashed border, but I don't want this on linked images and I'm trying to figure out if I can accomplish this with CSS only without additional markup in my HTML file.

Here is a sample file:

Any suggestions on how I can get the dashed border to not appear below the image and only appear below the text with just CSS?

Hello everyone,

I have a drop-down menu that is currently working well.

The only change I need to make is to have the right edge of the drop-down menu to align with the right edge of the parent menu. When you hover over the menu, it currently "drops" down and to the right, with the left edges aligned.

I want the menu to "drop" down and to the left, so the right edges are aligned.

I have tried fiddling with floats and absolute/relative positioning. I'm not sure what needs to be changed.

Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated! I'm learning via "cut and paste", so please go easy on any terminology you may use.

Thank you!

The menu currently drops like this (aligned along the left edge): http://www.justskins.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/drop-down-menu.gif



I want the menu to do this (align along the right edge; see how "Artists" is aligned under "Music" along the right edge): http://artatm.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/mtvmenu.JPG

Here is my code:

Code:

.chromestyle{
     width: 100%;
     font-weight: bold;
     float: left;
     height: 29px;
}

.chromestyle:after{ /*Add margin between menu and rest of content in Firefox*/
content: "."; 
display: block; 
height: 0; 
clear: both; 
visibility: hidden;
}

.chromestyle ul{
border: 0px solid #BBB;
width: 100%;
background: url(chromebg.gif) center center repeat-x; /*THEME CHANGE HERE*/
padding: 4px 0;
margin: 0;
text-align: right; /*set value to "left", "center", or "right"*/
}

.chromestyle ul li{
display: inline;
}

.chromestyle ul li a{
color: #000000;
padding: 4px 7px;
margin: 0;
text-decoration: none;
border-left: 1px solid #DADADA;
}

.chromestyle ul li a:hover, .chromestyle ul li a.selected{ /*script dynamically adds a class of "selected" to the current active menu item*/
background: url(chromebg-over.gif) center center repeat-x; /*THEME CHANGE HERE*/
}

/* ######### Style for Drop Down Menu ######### */

Hello

is there a way to make it so hyperlinks are not decorated as the default blue? I have the following css which I've attempted to make it so the text '.com' is always white, but it defaults to the standard link color.

html:

<td class="nodecoration"><a class="nodecoration" href="http://www.somesite.com">.com</a></td>

css:

Code:

td.nodecoration {
	background-color: #003399; color: white; width: 120px; height: 30px; font-family: "Verdana", sans-serif; font-size: 25px; font-weight: bold; text-align:center;
}

A:link.nodecoration {text-decoration: none}
A:visited.nodecoration{text-decoration:none}
A:active.nodecoration{text-decoration:none}
a:hover.nodecoration{text-decoration:underline}

Hi there,

First I should mention, I have been doing a lot of research to learn CSS, and this is basically the first time implementing it for my company's website. I have A LOT to learn still! I'm using Dreamweaver MX and MX 2004 (2004 seems to keep crashing on me today, and i can't run it)...anyways...

I am working on a dropdown menu using pure CSS....WHICH is a library item that I am dropping into a table cell below the top banner on the index page, and others.

However, I'm having problems with some styling and the best way to work some things.

First, if you click he

Interface

I hope someone can help me!! I'm so frustrated!



You can see HOW I want the nav to look.

I seem to have a problem with the aligning of the text, as well as roll over effects: basically, I would like my nav button to turn blue w/ white text. And I'd like to have my buttons closer together, having it look as close as possible to my interface img above.

Also having issues w/ IE...which I assume would happen.

Here is my CSS and HTML code (remember, no body or title tags because it's an lbi item:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<style>

#nav, #nav ul {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
list-style: none;


}

#nav a {
display: block;
width: 10em;
color: rgb(0,50,94);
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
text-decoration: none;
}

#nav li {
float: left;
width: auto;


}

#nav li ul {
position: absolute;
background: #C5D1DC;
width: 10em;
left: -999em;
margin: 3px;
border: 1px solid rgb(0,50,94);
padding:5px;

}

#nav li:hover ul, #nav li.sfhover ul {
left: auto;
}

.button {
background-color: #C5D1DC;
padding: 3px;
border-top: 1px solid #003A66;
border-right: 0px solid #003A66;
border-bottom: 1px solid #003A66;
border-left: 0px solid #003A66;
}
</style>

<script type="text/javascript"><!--//--><![CDATA[//><!--

sfHover = function() {
var sfEls = document.getElementById("nav").getElementsByTagName("LI");
for (var i=0; i<sfEls.length; i++) {
sfEls[i].onmouseover=function() {
this.className+=" sfhover";
}
sfEls[i].onmouseout=function() {
this.className=this.className.replace(new RegExp(" sfhover\\b"), "");
}
}
}
if (window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent("onload", sfHover);

(IF you need me to, I can send you my site files over email) I really really appreciate all the help you guy's can give me! I'm on a tight deadline, and I really want to use CSS. If I can't get this to work, I have to take out the drop down menu all together and go w/ a boring static menu system that will add in numerous extra pages....

THANKS!

Hi, I'm trying to get this drop down to work in IE, but I'm not exactly sure what the problem is, can anyone help me?

Hey folks,

having a bit of trouble with a css-based drop down menu in IE7. It works fine in IE8/FF/Chrome etc., but not 7.

The problem is when the rollover pops out, if you try and navigate down through the dropdown, it disappears.

The issue can be seen here.

Here's the code:
Code:

#mainMenu {
width:225px;
}

* + html #mainMenu {
margin-top:0;
}

#mainMenu li {
font-size:12px;
text-align:right;
margin-left:5px;
position:relative;
}

* html #mainMenu li { margin-left:10px; }

#mainMenu li a, #mainMenu li#clock {
background:none transparent;
display:block;
width:221px;
height:28px;
padding:8px 5px 0 0;
border-bottom:1px solid #e1dbcb;
color:#eee;
}

#mainMenu li#clock {
text-align:center;
padding-left:5px;
width:216px;
font:small-caps bold 12px Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
color:#e1dbcb;
}

#mainMenu li a:hover {
background:#e1dbcb;
color:#21729d;
}

	li ul {
	position: absolute;
	left: 225px;
	top: -1px;
	display: none;
	border:solid #e1dbcb;
	border-width:1px 5px 1px 0; 
	z-index:200;
	}

	* html li ul { left:220px; }

	#mainMenu li li {
	background:#21729d;
	}

	li ul li a {
	display: block;
	text-decoration: none;
	}
	
	li:hover ul, li.over ul { 
	display: block; 
	}

Thanks!

I've posted this before and the last time I was using a really bad workaround to get this drop down to work in IE. Now I'm using the suckerfish method, and it seems to work fine in firefox, opera, ie7, but in ie6 the drop down is offset and I think it's due to the container being offset. I'm not sure how I can make this work in ie6. Also there is supposed to be a background in the dropdown, but that's not showing up in ie6 either.

Please help me if you can, much appreciated.

I know it's possible,

Anyone know how to do it or point me to a good learning tutorial?

I have created a style sheet drop down menu and it works fine in mozilla and most times in works in ie however sometimes the menu will not drop down in ie but when you hit refresh the menu drops down.

any ideas.

Below is my stylesheet for creating a css drop down menu - I am using csshover.htc for internet explorer and this in the html

<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css" media="screen">
body {
behavior: url(<%lcURLTheme2%><%lcThemeName%>css/csshover.htc);}
#menu ul li {float: left; width: 100%;}
#menu ul li a {height: 1%;}
</style>
<![endif]-->



#menu {
z-index: 2000;
background: url(../images/hoz_menu_BG.gif) repeat-x #8898BC;
background-color: #8898BC;
color: black;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
left: 0;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: .9em;
font-weight: bold;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
border-bottom: 5px solid #CCD6EB;
}
/*top level for student*/
#menu #st ul { list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 19.7%;
float: left;
}

div#menu ul li li a {
color: white;
background-color: #4D678C;
text-transform: capitalize;
text-align: left;
border-left: 1px solid #FFFFFF;
}

For my horizontal drop-down menu, the menu items that overlap the content disappear for some reason in IE7. Here is the link... sweetless.zxq.net

I am an absolute newbie to CSS, so I'm not sure if I am missing something really simple?

-S

I am looking for help with creating a CSS drop down menu. I found an example online, but I am unable to make it work for my site. I am trying make a horizontal drop down menu, but the menu is being displayed vertically, can someone please help.
Thanks

Hi there,

Any help would be appreciated. Im currently building a site http://lafine.101webtech.com

Im implementing the drop down menu system from CSSPlay for some reason its all good in IE7, Firefox, Safari (PC) but IE6 is not display the top level items as a horizontal list. I know the menu works in IE6 as I tested on the site before I grabbed the code. It must be something in my implementation but I can't for the life of me work out what.

Cheers,

Phil
