CSS - Rollover Menu Centering Problem
Link: http://ajwells.org/mtmp/index.html
How do I get the menu there to center on the screen? Ive tried a number of things and nothings worked as of yet. Or better yet, is there an easy way to make the menu on the left side going downward rather than left to right? Either would be great. thanks for the help. Similar TutorialsHi ! Me again :P So this is a simple test i made to try this out. But I ran into a problem. Take a look for yourself: (view-source for xhtml and css) http://fotoz.hit.bg/test/menu.html The problem is that annoying flickering that happens when you roll over. Any ideas how to fix it ? And most importantly why does it occur? Thanks! p.s I should explain what i wanted to do here. Basicly 1 big background image to the <div>. It will be holding the "over" state of all the buttons. At the same time the <a> elements will be holding images of the "normal" state buttons, and when you hover over them they will disappear and you will see the "hover" state below. It works but I get the flickering with visibility:hidden and even if i just move the img out of the way i have a vertical rollover menu which has odd shaped boxes, i'd like these to rollover without hiding those parts of the image that protrude. [IMG](URL address blocked: See forum rules)[/IMG] basically they have to butt up underneath each other, but not loose the outside top edges on the rollover state. i also want the text aligned right, but have a negative indent of 10 or so pixels. you'll see what I mean upon viewing the example. thanks in advance! current CSS; ul { list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; text-align: right; position: relative; } ul a { display: block; width: 141px; height: 44px; line-height: 58px; text-decoration: none; background: url(../images/gif/menuOverA.gif) no-repeat left; } #home #menu .home a, #about #menu .about a, #choose #menu .choose a, #services #menu .services a, #health #menu .health a, #testimonials #menu .testimonials a, #contact #menu .contact a { background: url(../images/gif/menuOverA.gif) no-repeat right; cursor: default; color: White; } #menu a:hover { background: url(../images/gif/menuOverA.gif) no-repeat right; color: White; } #about #menu .about li { background-color: Aqua; } and html; <div id="menu"> <ul> <li class="home"><a href="index.html">HOME</a></li> <li class="about"><a href="aboutUs.html">ABOUT US</a></li> <li class="choose"><a href="whyChoose.html">WHY CHOOSE US</a></li> <li class="services"><a href="services.html">SERVICES</a></li> <li class="health"><a href="healthSafety.html">HEALTH & SAFETY</a></li> <li class="testimonials"><a href="testimonials.html">TESTIMONIALS</a></li> <li class="contact"><a href="contactUs.html">CONTACT US</a></li> </ul> </div> Hey Everyone, I would greatly appreciate any help. I created a drop down menu and it works perfectly on all browsers except for Internet Explorer. The ONLY issue is that it centers the text on the drop down. It should be LEFT aligned. If you see the menu on any other browser EXCEPT for Internet Explorer, you can see how its supposed to look. The drop down menu items should just be left aligned. See: ratemodifiers.com/menu.htm Thanks for all help!! Id appreciate all help! thank you so much hi, been trying to do this for a few hours now and pretty much struggling a bit. basically I have a <ul> and when I hover the mouse over one of the list links, I wantt a sub menu to appear which can also be clicked. I have trawled around abit to see if I could get anything but have come up empty handed. can someone point me in the right direction here. thanks!! I've finally finished a site, but I am having slight problems with the rollover menu. I was able to post it online, so check out this page, first in Firefox, then in IE. http://uwopartners.org/students/schuhm65/Plexus/main.html I believe the problem is that the conditional IE statements add a table within the main menu links. This is to get around using javascript, but when you hover over the main links, the background is changed and expanded to include the submenu. Can anyone figure out a work around for this, so the appearance is similar to Firefox? Here is the css: Code: html { margin:0; padding:0; } body { margin: 0; padding: 5px; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 76%; background-color: #eee; color: #000; } .clear { margin:0; padding:0; clear:both; font-size:0; line-height:0; } /* Header container */ #header { margin: 0; padding: 0; border: 1px solid #000; color: #fff; text-align: center; background: url("images/classroom.gif") repeat-x; } img#logo { margin: 10px 0px 0px 0px; border: 4px solid #FFF; } #header h1 { margin: 5px 0px 5px 0px; font-size: 2.5em; font-weight: bold; letter-spacing: 0.125em; } #banner { margin: 0; padding: 0; background: #235 url("images/banner.gif") no-repeat 50% 50%; border: 1px solid #000; } #banner img { width: 0; margin-left: -200px; padding-left: 1px; } /*topNav Container */ #topNav { margin: 10px 0px; padding: 0; /* border: 1px solid #ff0; */ } #searchBox { margin: 0; padding: 0; float: left; width: 150px; height: 125px; border: 1px solid #000; background: #FFF; text-align: center; } #nav { margin: 0px 0px 0px 153px; padding: 0px; /* border: 1px solid #0f0; */ } #nav ul { list-style-type: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; } #nav li#nav-foundation, #nav li#nav-submission, #nav li#nav-recipients, #nav li#nav-volunteer { margin: 0px 0px 0px 8px; padding: 0; float: left; display: inline; width: 23%; height: 125px; border: 1px solid #000; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: 50% 100%; } #nav table { border-collapse: collapse; } #nav a.mainMenu { display: block; font-size: 18px; color: #FFF; background-color: #c7013f; text-decoration: none; text-align: center; } #nav ul ul { margin: 0 auto; padding: 0; display: none; width: 90%; /* border: 1px solid #0f0; */ } #nav ul ul li { margin: 4px 0px; padding: 0; border: 1px solid #fff; } #nav table a { font-size: 15px; display: block; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; text-align: center; background-color: #c7013f; } #nav ul ul li a { font-size: 15px; display: block; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; text-align: center; background-color: #c7013f; } #nav ul li:hover a.mainMenu , #nav ul a.mainMenu:hover { background-color: #235; } #nav ul li:hover ul, #nav ul a.mainMenu:hover ul{ display: block; } #nav ul ul li:hover a, #nav ul ul a:hover { background-color: #235; } /* nav Headings #foundation #nav-foundation a.mainMenu, #submission #nav-submission a.mainMenu, #volunteer #nav-volunteer a.mainMenu, #recipients #nav-recipients a.mainMenu { background: #235; } #charter #nav-foundation ul, #committee #nav-foundation ul, #schedule #nav-foundation ul { display: block; } #charter #nav-foundation ul #nav-charter a, #committee #nav-foundation ul #nav-committee a, #schedule #nav-foundation ul #nav-schedule a { background: #235; } */ /* Side Navigation */ #sideNav { float: left; width: 151px; /* 1px adjustment for no border */ margin-right: 10px; } /* sideNav Boxes */ #sideNav .box { margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 5px 5px 5px 50px; border: 1px solid #000; height: 90px; /* add 10 for padding */ background: #235; color: #fff; background-repeat: no-repeat; } #sideNav a { font-size: 1em; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; } #sideNav #calendar { margin: 0px; } #sideNav img { border-style: none; width: 150px; height: 150px; } #sideNav a:hover { font-weight: bold; } /* Main Content Container */ #main { float: auto; padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #000; background: #fff; margin-left: 165px; } /* Page Footer */ #footer { clear: both; background: #235; border: 1px solid #000; color: #aaa; text-align: center; margin: 10px 0px 0px 0px; padding: 20px; } #footer a { color: #fff; font: underline; } #footer a:hover { font-weight: bold; letter-spacing: .1em; } And here is the html: 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" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> <head> <title>Welcome!</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" /> <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <!-- Header --> <div id="header"> <span> <img id="logo" src="images/plexusLogo.jpg" alt="Plexus"/>®</span> <h1>Helping Hands</h1> <div id="banner"> <img src="images/banner.gif" width="200" height="30" alt="Providing Resources - Supporting Communities - Affecting Lives"> </div> </div> <!-- Navigation Menu --> <div id="topNav"> <!-- Search Box --> <div id="searchBox"> Welcome, <b>John Doe</b>!

I would like there to be no images involved. I have been trying for a good few days now. I can almost get it to work in IE (Except the 1px gap between button and end-block), but in other browsers its just not working. Any help is greatly appreciated, Cheers, Rob Hi guys I am trying to place a top menu on the side of my site, I can't seem to get the rollover to work. This is what I have on my css. Thanks in advance #topmenu ul { list-style: none; margin: 20px; padding: 0; } #topicons { width: 76px; position: absolute; left: 800px; background: url(../images/top-icons.gif); margin: 0px; padding: 50px; height: 146px; } #topicons li { list-style-type:none; margin: 0; } #topicons li a { background-image:url('../images/top-icons.gif'); background-repeat:no-repeat; margin: 0; padding: 0; display: block; height: 44px; text-indent: -9999px; overflow: hidden; } #topicons li a.item1 {background-position:0px 0px;} #topicons li a:hover.item1 {background-position:0px -49px;} #topicons li a.item2 {background-position:0px -90px;} #topicons li a:hover.item2 {background-position:0px -144px;} #topicons li a.item3 {background-position:0px -188px;} #topicons li a:hover.item3 {background-position:0px -280px;} Hello everyone, I have a fairly basic CSS question to ask, but since I'm new to CSS, I'm a bit stumped. If you check out my Blog (at http://goblinsatemyblog.com), on the sidebar you'll see that the menu hovers are colored green. However, on a few of the widgets displayed, rolling over the menu truncates the link down a few pixels, which doesn't look that great. I applied "display: block" tags and a background color to the widgets to create the rollover, but some still work properly and others don't. What do I need to do to keep the rollover links from acting up? Here's the code pertaining to the two CSS files in the theme. Code: .custom li.widget li a:hover, .custom li.linkcat li a:hover { display: block; padding: 0 0 0 0.3em; color: #fff; background: #009933; } Code: #rss { width: 20em; height: 190px; margin: 0 0 1.0em 0; background: url('images/rss.png') 50% 0 no-repeat; text-align: center; } #rss a { display: block; width: 202px; height: 184px; margin: 0 auto; } ul.sidebar_list { list-style: none; } ul.sidebar_list li.widget, ul.sidebar_list li.linkcat { width: 16.6667em; margin: 0 0 2.8em 0; font-size: 1.2em; line-height: 1.6667em; float: left; border-bottom: 2px solid #009933; } li.widget p { margin: 0 0 1.66667em 0; } li.widget ul, li.linkcat ul { list-style: none; margin: 0 0 0.8333em 0; } li.widget li, li.linkcat li { padding: 0 1.0em 0 1.16667em; background: url('images/bullet.gif') 0 0.4167em no-repeat; } li.widget li a:hover, li.linkcat li a:hover { color: #575757; } I picked out the part of the CSS files that I think are relevant, but I can past the entire code if requested. Thank you in advance! I'm having a problem getting the text of an <a> tag to be what I want where I want. No one in the javascript forum wants to tackle this. maybe it is a css thing. I made this interlocking tabbed menu which I do by javascript updating the position of the background graphic and its neighbor. I have done buttons before with a background and text overlayed. but they were always <input>'s and whatever I put in the value field just kinda showed up on top of the background graphic. These are actually <a>'s I assumed the text I put in between the <a> and the </a> tag would just show up but it doesn't. I tried making special divs for them but then I run in to position problems. If I make it absolute the first one is fine, then they all pile on top of it. If I make it relative, NONE of them show. Here is a test http://colleenweb.com/tests/bartest.php There is nothing like css for turning my brain into industrial waste. This has to be doable. Someone who understands this stuff please advise? hi, yeah I got a rollover menu working on my comp (localhost), but when I view it from outside my LAN (MSIE v6) my rollover events are not working; the menu item text is not changing colour on rollover, and my sub menu is not coming up either. does this ring any bells? help much appreciated! tomm[.]bnesfinest[.]net/underattackwebsite/test/menu.html tomm[.]bnesfinest[.]net/underattackwebsite/test/menu.css For some reason, it refuses to rollover... in the actual site I've tried implementing it, all of them come up in the secondary start (black text, blue bg) rather than the default state (white text, transparent bg). Neither times does it actually "rollover". What am I doing wrong? Code from: webvamp[.]co[.]uk/blog/coding/graphical-css-rollover-menu/#example i have a rollover menu that i made with image in a row absolutly positioned. for each button the html code is <div class="art"> <a href="#"> <span class="marginoffset"> Link text here (end tags) and the css is .art {z-index:2;position: absolute; left: 55px; top:0px; display:block; width:600px; height:70px; background: no-repeat 0px 0px; text-indent: -55px; line-height: 14.5em; text-decoration:none; color:#000; font-size:11px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;} .art a {position: absolute;display:block; background:url(menuimg/btn.art_repro.jpg) no-repeat 0px 0px;line-height: 16.5em; text-align:left; text-decoration:none; text-wrapping: no-wrap; color:#999; font-size:0.7em;font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;} .art a:hover {position: absolute; background: url(menuimg/btn.art_repro_f2.jpg) no-repeat 0px 0px; line-height: 14.5em; text-align:left; text-decoration:none; color:#000; font-size:11px;font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;} .art a:active {position: absolute; background: url(menuimg/btn.art_repro_f3.jpg) no-repeat 0px 0px; line-height: 14.5em; text-align:left; text-decoration:none; color:#000; font-size:11px;font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;} . marginoffset ( position: relative; left: 0px; top:0px; I am having a lot of trouble with a menu I created.

Thanks, Chris Hi, I have a client that wanted me to develop a horizontal navigation menu bar along with a sub-menu that appears horizontal right under the original. My question is, is with the code that I have, I cannot seem to center the menu elements so that either the links are centered on the navigation bar, or so that the width of the links spread out across the whole bar. I have tried numerous tasks such as switching paddings, margins, and width of certain elements, but if anyone can help me find a solution that would be great. I have it hosted if you want to see what it looks like to get an idea. jelc.hostzi.com/Home CSS: Code: .droplinebar{ overflow: hidden; } .droplinebar ul{ margin: 0; padding: 0; float: left; width: 800px; border-top-style: ridge; border-top-width: 2px; border-bottom-style: ridge; border-bottom-width: 2px; font: bold 13px Arial; background: #242c54 url('../Images/bluedefault.gif') center center repeat-x; /*default background of menu bar*/ } .droplinebar ul li{ display: inline; } .droplinebar ul li a{ float: left; color: white; padding: 9px 11px; text-decoration: none; } .droplinebar ul li a:visited{ color: white; } .droplinebar ul li a:hover, .droplinebar ul li .current{ /*background of main menu bar links onMouseover*/ color: white; background: transparent url('../Images/blueactive.gif') center center repeat-x; } /* Sub level menus*/ .droplinebar ul li ul{ position: absolute; z-index: 100; left: 0; top: 0; background: #303c76; /*sub menu background color */ visibility: hidden; } /* Sub level menu links style */ .droplinebar ul li ul li a{ font: normal 13px Verdana; padding: 6px; padding-right: 8px; margin: 0; border-bottom: 1px solid navy; } .droplinebar ul li ul li a:hover{ /*sub menu links' background color onMouseover */ background: #242c54; } Thanks for all of the help in advance! I'm an idiot when it comes to CSS, so please bare with me as I pose this seemingly simple question... Seems as if I've tried everything, playing with all of the properties in Firebug, but to no avail. I simply want this menu centered with some extra padding between the items. Please help!

I tried to make a rollover graphic menu today. And of course I got completely stuck with this code: Code: /* Header */ #header { position: absolute; background: url(images/header.jpg) no-repeat; width: 830px; } #menu, #menu li a:hover, #menu li.current a { background: url(images/link_menu.jpg) no-repeat; } #menu { margin: 115px 0px 0px 29px ; width: 600px ; height: 75px ; list-style-type: none; } #menu li { float: left; margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; width: 120px; height: 75px; } #menu li#menu-contact { margin: 0; } #menu li a { display: block; padding: 75px 0px 0px 0px; height: 75px; overflow: hidden; } html>body #menu li a { height: 0; } #menu li#menu-home a:hover, #menu li#menu-home.current a { background-position: 0px -75px 120px 29px; } #menu li#menu-about a:hover, #menu li#menu-about.current a { background-position: -120px -75px; } #menu li#menu-gallery a:hover, #menu li#menu-gallery.current a { background-position: -240px -75px; } #menu li#menu-foto-shop a:hover, #menu li#menu-foto-shop.current a { background-position: -360px -75px; } #menu li#menu-contact a:hover, #menu li#menu-contact.current a { background-position: -480px -75px; } The rollover works, but somehow it shifts to the right Like this: URL What am I doing wrong? Why does it shift? Thanks in advance... First of all, this is my first post, so take it easy on me if I do something wrong Onto the problem... I'm trying to center my CSS navigation menu. I'm probably making a completely moronic mistake, but I've been trying to figure this out for quite some time now to no avail. I've managed to ALMOST do it, but there's something wrong, and it's probably something minor. (Please excuse the sloppy coding; I'm just beginning to design the layout) HTML: Code: <div id="navigation"> <ul id="navigation"> <li><a href="page1.html" target="_self" title="Home" class="current">Home</a></li> <li><a href="about.html" target="_self" title="About">About</a></li> <li><a href="solutions/solutions.html" target="_self" title="Solutions">Solutions</a></li> <li><a href="clients/clients.html" target="_self" title="Clients">Clients</a></li> <li><a href="faq/faq.html" target="_self" title="FAQ">FAQ</a></li> <li><a href="contact/contact.html" target="_self" title="Contact">Contact</a></li> </ul></div> <!-- end #navigation --> CSS: Code: } .twoColLiqRtHdr #navigation { height: 37px; background: #FFF url("images/menu-bg-yellow-orig.gif") repeat-x; font-size: .9em; font-family: "Lucida Grande", Verdana, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; margin-left: 0; padding: 0; } #navigation ul, #navigation ul li { list-style: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; } .twoColLiqRtHdr #navigation ul { height: 37px; margin: 0; padding: 0; text-align: center; } .twoColLigRtHdr #navigation ul li { display: inline-block; } .twoColLiqRtHdr #navigation ul li a { color: #777; text-decoration: none; padding: 2px 10px 0px; height: 37px; line-height: 200%; margin: 0; display: inline-block; } .twoColLiqRtHdr #navigation ul li a:hover { color: #333; } .twoColLiqRtHdr #navigation ul li a.current { color: #CC0A00; background: #FFF url("images/current-bg-yellow.gif") repeat-x; padding: 2px 10px 0px; display: inline-block; } /*\*//*/ #navigation ul li a { display: inline-block; white-space: nowrap; width: 1px; } #navigation ul { padding-bottom: 0; margin-bottom: -1px; } /**/ /*\*/ html #navigation ul li a { padding: 0; } /**/ This is the result of my current coding: http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i320/blockbusted/cssmenuproblem.jpg If anyone can shed some light on this problem of mine, I would greatly appreciate it! THANKS! (P.S. I know the CSS doesn't validate; I just validated it and I'm still having the same problem.) Hello, I have a vertical menu on the left hand side of my page that I'm working on. I'm trying to center the text vertically in each box as some menu names take up two lines and are skewing the alignment. Here's the code I'm using for the menu: Code: #menu { clear: left; float: left; width: 150px; margin: 0 0 10px 0; padding: 0; font-size: 0.9em; } #menu ul { list-style: none; width: 150px; margin: 0 0 20px 0; padding: 0; font-size: 10px; } #menu li { margin-bottom: 4px; /* space between each menu item */ } #menu li a { /* text */ font-weight: bold; height: 25px; /* height of menu tabs */ text-decoration: none; color: #505050; display: block; padding-left: 10px; padding-top: 5px; background: #f4f4f4; border-left: 4px solid #cccccc; } #menu li a:hover { background: #eaeaea; color: #286ea0; border-left: 4px solid #286ea0; } If anyone could help me out that'd be great. Thanks! |
